The Lei No. 1 lifeboat slowly broke away from the battleship. Ye Han in the boat held his hand on the porthole again and stared sadly at the Leishan that was gradually moving away.
It has been exactly one year and four months since I took over the Leishan in June last year.
One and a half years is not a long time, but even a kitten or puppy can develop a lot of affection after being raised for such a long time, let alone a battleship that has been protecting everyone from wind and rain and brought countless honors to everyone?
Although it is lifeless and unable to speak, it has the most powerful weapons and the safest protection. In Ye Han's heart, the Leishan is the best companion, no one else.
Now that he had to be separated from his partner who had been with him day and night, Ye Han felt extremely complicated and couldn't explain what it was like.
He Luoluoqi stayed by Ye Han's side silently, without saying a word.
The lifeboat flew farther and farther, and the mountainous figure of the Leishan became more and more blurred. Until it disappeared into the darkness, Ye Han sighed quietly: "Has the direction been corrected?"
"It has been corrected. We are flying towards the sun..." At this point, He Lu also sighed, "But our speed is too slow. At the current speed, it will take at least seven years to fly back to the earth."
"Just seven years, just seven years. Being able to go back is better than anything else," Ye Han said.
He Ludao: "Captain, can we use planetary acceleration?"
"Who are you using? Saturn?" Ye Han twitched his lips, "That's the territory of aliens!"
He Lu stopped talking. Of course, there were more than just Saturn on the way back to Earth, but except for Mars, all other planets were under the control of aliens. Daring to get close to them would be the same as risking death.
As for Mars... haha, you can touch the door of the earth. Is there any difference if you increase the speed or not?
He Lu was very reluctant, but he knew that Ye Han's worries were justified: "Our direction is too biased."
If Leishan had left the ship with other lifeboats before it turned around, the return time would have been shortened from seven years to three years. Unfortunately, there is no if in reality, and it is too late to regret now.
Ye Han sighed: "Let's just go, as long as we can go back..."
Halfway through the words, he couldn't continue because Ye Han really didn't know whether he would be able to fly back to Earth in the end.
Just in case, Ye Han sent all the navigation data of Lei No. 1 back to the earth. Moreover, Lei No. 1 would also send positioning signals regularly. As long as Beidu sent warships to search, it would not be difficult to find Lei No. 1.
"Go to sleep." Ye Han said.
The three people lay down in the hibernation cabin, and the heavy hatch cover slowly closed. Various equipment in the cabin started to operate quickly, the temperature plummeted, and the injection needle automatically poked into the arms of the three people.
Ye Han said it was simple, but sleeping was not as easy as imagined.
The expedition fleet was only planning to hit Jupiter when it left port. If it was still near Jupiter at this time, Ye Han would be able to sleep all the way back to Earth just by hibernating on his own.
But the Leishan went too far, not only to Saturn, but also beyond Saturn and into the Uranus region. The resources on the lifeboat were limited and it was unable to return to Earth.
So you can only double hibernate, you must double hibernate!
Double hibernation means that no one can wake up independently and must get help from others to get out of the deepest hibernation. Otherwise, what awaits them will be eternal sleep until they die silently in their sleep.
Ye Han doesn't want to die, nor do He Lu and Luo Qi, but if they want to return to Earth alive, they must double hibernate and take a gamble.
The bet is everyone's life.
Six days after Lei 1 left the ship, Sirius, which had been flying at full speed for more than two months, arrived at Saturn.
At this time, Saturn has not yet recovered from the expeditionary force's attack. There are small celestial bodies and battleship wreckage flying everywhere. Hundreds of large and small holes are embedded in the ring. The good rings of Saturn are like mice gnawing.
Old rags, indescribably dilapidated and messy.
At least hundreds of alien spacecraft shuttled back and forth among the chaotic small celestial bodies, collecting the remains of alien warships and gathering them together.
The aliens seem to want to recycle waste and use the remains of alien warships to cultivate new warships.
No matter what the aliens wanted to do, Duan Zhiyang did not intend to give the enemy a chance. The Sirius, which had just arrived at Saturn, immediately rushed towards the rings of Saturn, charging and firing at the enemy.
The Sirius doesn't have any particularly powerful means. It's nothing more than super cannons and long-range missiles. But these two means can make the aliens cry for their parents and hate their parents for not giving birth to more legs. There are swarms of alien spaceships.
They dispersed in a hurry, leaving only the wreckage of a group of nine battleships.
Duan Zhiyang naturally would not be polite to the enemy, so he smashed several super nuclear bombs and immediately destroyed all the remains of the enemy ships.
The battle went incredibly smoothly, killing dozens of enemy ships in a row, but no alien warship dared to confront the Sirius.
After fighting for a while, Duan Zhiyang discovered that the ones left on Saturn were not battleships, but ordinary alien spaceships.
There was nothing to talk about between humans and aliens. No matter whether it was a battleship or not, there was no reason to let them go. So the Sirius fought more happily, chasing the enemy ships that could not fight back.
Not only that, when Sirius passes by a satellite, it will also throw several super nuclear bombs at the satellite. The number depends on the size of the satellite. None of the named Saturn satellites was dropped.
The massive destruction of the Sirius finally angered the aliens. They sent out the remaining warships, but there were only a few dozen of these warships in total. Before they even touched the side of the Sirius, they let the super cannon hit them.
Damn it.
This is so fucking embarrassing. The aliens never thought that human battleships could develop to this point. Thinking back to the past, when humans could only use extremely crude battleships to fight against asteroids, the aliens couldn't help crying.
Flow all over the face... They don't have small glands, but they have corresponding emotions.
If the emotion is right, it doesn't matter whether there are tears or not.
While the Sirius was wreaking havoc on Saturn, the alien fleet that had been chasing the Qingzhou for nearly a month suddenly gave up the chase, collectively changed direction, and returned to Saturn like their buttocks were on fire.
At this time, Qingzhou was on the verge of abandoning the ship. If the enemy persisted for a few more days, Ruan Yinghua would have to abandon the ship to protect himself.
The action of the Sirius rescued the Qingzhou, and Ruan Yinghua immediately ordered the battleship to return without saying a word.
However, the Qingzhou did not sail directly to the earth, but chose several points. By connecting these points, you can find that the Qingzhou planned to rescue the lifeboats of the Leishan first, and then the lifeboats of the Shihe.
The Sirius has a heavy responsibility and will definitely not have time to take care of the rescue lifeboats. The Qingzhou must shoulder this burden.
In order to collect the lifeboats, Ruan Yinghua also spent a lot of money. The voyage that originally only took about a year ended up taking a year and a half. More than half of the lifeboats released by the Leishan and Shihe were recovered by the Qingzhou.
