(Thanks to the readers for their opinions. The Blue Star Group is actually more similar to the WTO plus a little bit of the United Nations’ capabilities. Although the member states have strong military power, they can only mobilize a few peacekeeping forces. Therefore, there may be thousands of troops within the Blue Star Group.
Luo Jinxian, but the Blue Star Group can mobilize very few. Not to mention that a large number of Luo Jinxian are 'opposition'.)
In the small spacecraft control room, there were empty cans all over the floor.
At this time, they heard the roar of the lion from the east of the river from the leader's wife, and the crew members obediently piled the unopened cans on the table next to the woman. By the way, they glanced at the leader: You think you should be more angry!
The lady looked at the pile of cans in front of her and continued to raise her eyebrows: "Cans?"
"Yes, yes, ma'am, we have given up gambling. Now if I get addicted to gambling, I can just gamble on soda cans, and I can also get rid of my alcohol addiction."
lady:……
After a while, the lady snorted coldly: "Everyone, sit down and let's analyze together what should be done next!"
Everyone had had enough trouble and gradually calmed down. Everyone sat back down in their seats and started a heated discussion. Playing is still playing, life must go on.
This is just a small mercenary group, with a total of only 15 warships. The leader with the highest cultivation level is Hong Xiaoquan, who is in the Chunyang realm - this was two years ago. The one with the highest cultivation level now is the leader's wife Miao Feng
Ling has reached the peak state of Pure Yang.
As for why the leader is so afraid of his wife, it’s a long story...so I won’t go into it.
It is said that there are not only the glorious upper class in this world, but also the ordinary people who are struggling to survive at the bottom. In this fast-developing and fiercely competitive interstellar environment, the pure Yang realm can only be regarded as a better ordinary person.
.
Kuang Tao mercenary group is just one of the masses.
More than thirty years ago, before the development of the Blue Star Group, the Kuang Tao mercenary group was doing well. Although there were only a few pure Yang realms, they could still receive many missions relying on the relatively precious warships in their hands.
At that time, the Kuang Tao mercenary group did not accept long-range missions, just small missions within a hundred light years. The danger was not great, and there were several large mercenary groups (pirate groups) around them who were also relatively sensible - no
Kill the goose and lay the eggs. Just pay a little protection fee every ten years.
Even the Kuangtide Mercenary Group itself sometimes played a role as a pirate. Anyway, in that chaotic environment, no one could tell anyone; most of those who insisted on doing mercenary missions starved to death in the toilet.
And before the Blue Star Group, the only ones that could threaten the battleships were the Huanxu Realm; but the Huanxu Realm was not that idle. So although the Kuangtide Mercenary Group had a bit of a hard time, the overall situation was good, and everyone was still on the upward path. Every year
There are also surpluses used to purchase spiritual resources, etc.
However, with the development of Blue Star Group, the situation has gradually changed. The first and most obvious change is commercial trade.
With the improvement of exchanges, a large number of business groups have united, and large-scale commercial and trade exchanges have begun. Small business groups have attached themselves to large business groups, and everyone no longer needs small players like the Kuangtao Mercenary Group.
The Kuang Tide Mercenary Group later tried to join the large mercenary group, but they left in a hurry after just one mission. In one mission, the Kuang Tide Mercenary Group reduced its fleet from 23 spaceships to 15 spaceships.
Once they reach a large mercenary group, they have no choice but to be cannon fodder and go to dangerous places.
The Kuangtao Mercenary Group also tried to unite many small mercenary groups, but everyone found that those small mercenary groups were even worse and would hinder their progress.
With no other choice, the Kuangtao mercenary group began to run transportation. But the problem came again: using old battleships to run transportation, barely breaking even!
Due to the rapid changes in the business environment, the old warships of the Kuangtide Mercenary Group can no longer keep up with the times.
While other merchant ships can easily exceed the speed of 1,000 light-years per month, the warships of the Kuangtang Mercenary Group are still struggling at the speed of 487 light-years per month. The warships themselves suffer heavy losses, transportation costs are high, and life becomes increasingly difficult.
It's difficult.
What’s even more difficult is that as a large number of old warships and spaceships are eliminated, maintenance problems have become more and more difficult. There have been no problems in a short period of time, but maintenance costs have skyrocketed!
It’s not like the Kuangtang Mercenary Group has never thought about selling old spaceships and replacing them with new ones. But I don’t know when the old spaceships have become worthless! Everyone has said that the maintenance cost is more expensive than that of a battleship, and the old spaceships are worthless.
There is basically no market anymore.
Therefore, the high-level officials of the Kuangtang Mercenary Group made some calculations, sold all the spaceships, and used their savings to buy a medium-sized new merchant ship.
But what’s the use of a merchant ship! And after buying a spaceship, there are various tariffs and various items that need to be purchased. After all, the money is still not enough.
Let's talk about loans, but it's a pity. Without any foundation, the Kuangtide Mercenary Group is not even qualified to enter the bank's door.
Fortunately, life is not without hope. Recently, the Blue Star Group has begun to implement the rule of law and has begun to implement strategies such as abolishing tariffs, which makes everyone in the Kuangtao Mercenary Group feel that maybe life will be better.
However, Hong Xiaoquan, the leader of the group, did not realize that without tariffs, he would be even more unable to compete with those large business groups!
Hong Xiaoquan recently fell in love with Dayang Daily, the newspaper of Dayang Group. Although the information is delayed due to the vast starry sky and other reasons, "Dayang Daily" is divided into three sections: the local section, which is also real-time news; the surrounding section,
It is the surrounding news within 48 hours; there is also the peripheral sector, which is the news after 48 hours.
Due to the development of technology, "Ocean Daily" is not only a newspaper, but also an Internet. Even now, "Ocean Daily" has become the largest online information platform within the Blue Star Group.
Daluo Jinxian and Jinxian, who had just escaped from the invasion fleet announced by the Blue Star Group, and the Kuangtao mercenary group naturally saw it, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
Of course they care, but it's useless. They are just a small mercenary group, and it is difficult for them to survive. And the hardships in life have basically made them lose their yearning for miracles.
15 half-old spaceships are advancing "slowly" in the starry sky. Nowadays, many of the spacecraft's equipment have aged, and the forward speed of the spacecraft has dropped from 507 light years per month at its peak to 487 light years per month.
It is foreseeable that as the spacecraft equipment ages, the speed of the spacecraft will further decrease in the future.
The spaceship is still moving forward, and the short discussion of the mercenary group is over. For the time being, everyone still can't find a new direction of development. In the end, Miao Fengling, the wife of the group leader, encouraged: "Don't be discouraged. I am determined to reach a thousand miles..."
"But it's only a thousand miles away. After a thousand miles, it's time to bury it. Well...it's only a thousand miles away!" Hong Xiaoquan commented while shaking his head.
"Pah!" Miao Fengling slapped Hong Xiaoquan on the head, causing someone to lie down.
But the captain immediately stood up with a silly smile and was about to say something. But suddenly a strong light burst out, illuminating the control room of the spacecraft.
The light was so intense that it continued continuously, and everyone even felt a faint burning sensation.
"Supernova explosion? Star explosion?" Hong Xiaoquan stopped his silly smile instantly and looked serious. The leader's wife, who was still domineering just now, carefully moved half a step to stand in front of Hong Xiaoquan, blocking half of his figure.
"Girls, let's go." Hong Xiaoquan pushed Miao Fengling aside, squinted at the light of the explosion in front of him, and calmly commanded: "We may encounter a supernova explosion, leave the time travel immediately, and observe
Check the surrounding situation and explore the surrounding starry sky after making sure it is safe. Some strange spiritual materials may appear in a supernova explosion.
Fang Dahai, check the star map near us to determine the situation of the nearest stars."
The fleet immediately shut down the time travel technology and entered normal navigation.
As the fleet navigator, Fang Dahai immediately checked the star map and gave the direction after a while: "We are now 10 light-years southeast of the second star in the constellation Latrine and 5 light-years below the fundamental plane of the astrolabe.
According to the new orientation marking of Blue Star Group, if the second star of the toilet constellation is taken as the 0 point, then our current position is the 'South 8, 6, -5' position.
Our current distance from the star in front is approximately 81.2 billion kilometers.
The star map shows that this is a small red dwarf star.
But that's not right. According to the latest Ocean Group data, this red dwarf star has a lifespan of at least five billion years. Moreover, this red dwarf star is too small. Even if its lifespan ends, it will not explode as a supernova, but will cool down little by little.
Die peacefully."
"More than 80 billion kilometers... it takes more than three days for the speed of light to travel." Hong Xiaoquan's eyes shone with wisdom, "analyze the light immediately and take out the light capture and analyzer we recently bought from Dayang Group!"
This analyzer is a treasure, even though it was bought from the second-hand market.
Since the concept of the speed of light was clarified due to the research of Dayang Group, a "post-production photography and evidence collection" technology has emerged.
To put it simply, if I miss something important, I can use time and space travel technology to catch up with the light, wait for it in the starry sky farther away, and capture the light.
However, this thing is simple to say, but it is troublesome to operate in practice, and only those that emit strong light can be captured, and they are easy to be interfered. At present, the best way to deal with this phenomenon is Dayang Group. Followed by Blue Star
Group, it is said that it purchased the technology patent from Dayang Group. The rest are gone.
The analyzer was brought in, and the fleet immediately began to adjust. The analyzer first analyzed that the incident should have occurred 3 days and 12 hours ago; it took 3 days, 3 hours and 13 minutes for the light to travel from the star to the current position.
So if you want to see the original appearance of the event, you need to chase the light in the outer starry sky for more than 18 hours - including the time of the spacecraft's movement. Moreover, because the spacecraft and the radius of the current star's light range (spherical), there is an angle.
, need to fly farther.
The fleet determined that the surrounding area was safe and entered the state of hyperspace travel again. 18 hours later, it turned out that it had just flown out of the light coverage area and immediately turned on the analyzer.
Half an hour later, Hong Xiaoquan and others were stunned.
But the analyzed screen showed that a faint golden light flew from the bottom of the astrolabe, and the golden light almost hit the star directly at 0.96 times the speed of light. The diameter of the golden light is about 10 kilometers.
Due to this impact, the star exploded. This is what everyone saw.
Hong Xiaoquan looked at the picture several times, blinked, swallowed, and stuttered: "Golden light...10 kilometers...three days ago...this damn thing can't be those five Da Luo Jinxian and more than 3,000
