But this time I didn’t stay at Green Apple Star, I just passed by on the way and then continued south.
Green Apple Star is located at the front station of the No. 5 pioneering star field. The farthest developed area of the No. 5 pioneering star field is further south, nearly 20,000 light-years away from Green Apple Star.
From the Green Apple Star to the south, there are two fixed routes to the two living planets closest to the Green Apple Star in the development area.
The main gathering place for pioneers in the pioneering star field is the living planets, and most of them are active near those living planets.
The area around Green Apple Star within a few thousand light-years is the earliest pioneering area today. The valuable resources have basically been mined, and there is no development prospect. Fang Chen’s plan is to first enter the depths of the Starfield to open up a few large pioneers. Let’s turn around the gathering points to see which side can develop better.
The coordinates were not recorded, so the first time I went there I could only fly over slowly.
Although there is a fixed channel, the distance is too far. No force in the pioneering star field has the strong ability to maintain such a long channel, so there are very many wild monsters along the way.
Fortunately, Fang Chen already had two T5-class destroyers and eight T5-class frigates at this time. Coupled with his super talent, his combat effectiveness was already quite strong, and ordinary wild monsters were no match for him.
Even if you encounter a large group of wild monsters, you won't be afraid. If you can't defeat them, you can always outrun them.
Killing all the way leisurely, time passed unknowingly. One day five months ago, Fang Chen, who was commanding the fleet to surround and kill a small group of pirate gunboats, suddenly paused and had a strange expression on his face.
Countless hair-thin white lights gathered in his pupils, slowly condensing into a stream of light.
The second eternal light was condensed.
This thing has been condensed for 10 years, but it is not exactly 10 years, so it is not condensed on his twentieth birthday.
Looking at the magical eternal light in front of him, Fang Chen rubbed his forehead. Although the thing was good, it could not be used for the time being. None of his subordinates were qualified to use this precious eternal light.
"It's still developing slowly!"
But there is no way, we can't find qualified subordinates at this stage.
Although colleges of major powers graduate a large number of talented people every year, the high-quality ones are picked up before they graduate, and most of the rest are leftovers. Occasionally, high-quality fish that slip through the net are snatched up by all parties, or If there is any flaw, it won't be his turn at all.
"boom!"
Missiles dragged long tail flames and broke through the firepower net formed by close firepower and hit a cruiser. The terrifying power generated by the explosion tore the thick alloy armor and threw it into the cold starry sky.
The cruiser immediately fired back. A row of dozens of missile launch bays on the ship's hull opened. Deep-space missiles flew out with long tail flames, turned around in the air and rushed towards another target more than a thousand kilometers away. battleship.
A large number of frigates gathered quickly on the way, and the close-in defense system sprayed out long lines of fire that intertwined into a network. Many missiles crashed into the fire network and were torn apart by the shelling bullets of the super-fast close-in defense cannon.
But there were also many missiles that passed through the fire net and hit another cruiser behind the frigate.
There is another cruiser on the other side of this cruiser, but the main module of this cruiser is not a missile module, but a hangar module. A large number of space fighters fly out of the hatch and form an array to pounce on the enemy ships in the distance.
The space fighters were very fast and quickly rushed to the battlefield, fighting in a melee with the fleet of space fighters released from the opponent's cruiser.
When Fang Chen came out of the hyperspace channel, he saw a melee in the starry sky less than 10,000 kilometers away from the channel entrance.
It's not a war between pioneers and wild monsters, but a war between two player teams.
These are two very strong teams. Each side has four or five cruisers, a dozen destroyers, and more than one hundred or two hundred frigates.
Judging from the wreckage of battleships floating in the starry sky around them, the two sides had been fighting for a long time. Both sides had sunk two and three main cruisers, four or five destroyers, and dozens of frigates.
There were many people watching the excitement like him. There were several groups of small fleets anchored not far from the entrance to the hyperspace channel. Fang Chen also ordered the fleets to move closer while carefully observing the battle.
The battle method of cruisers is different from that of destroyers and frigates, because cruisers are already large battleships and the weapons that can be configured are different.
Weapons such as missiles and space fighters are only equipped on cruisers and battleships, and generally not on destroyers.
It's not that it can't be configured. In theory, destroyers also have missile modules. Just replace the cannon module on the bow with a missile module.
It’s just that the size of the destroyer is not large. If it is replaced with a missile module, there will not be much space to store the missiles. As we all know, missiles are very large, much larger than metal artillery shells. This will lead to a low combat endurance of the destroyer.
The same is true for space fighters. Fighters are larger than missiles, and the destroyer-modified hangar module cannot accommodate a few space fighters.
Cruisers are different. When battleships are too expensive, cruisers, which are also large battleships, have become the main battleships of most small and medium-sized forces. Some powerful weapons can be equipped on cruisers.
These two teams either had a grudge or were competitors, and even though so many people were watching the game, they were still having fun.
Battleships turned into fireballs and exploded, and from time to time, a destroyer worth billions was sunk.
Both sides showed no intention of retreating. They could not get out of the line of fire even if they were slightly injured. Even if the shields were broken and the armor was torn, they would not retreat. They insisted on fighting until the last moment. Fang Chen was stunned from behind and couldn't help but give in to a fleet watching the battle not far away. The cruiser in the center sent a communication inquiry:
"Brother, I just came here. Do these two teams have some kind of sworn hatred to fight so fiercely?"
Soon the communication was connected, and a middle-aged man with a Chinese-character face appeared. He replied:
"These two teams are two medium-sized teams active nearby. They have been fighting for a medium-sized gneiss mineral deposit for more than ten years. They have to fight almost every two or three months. This is normal."
"Medium-sized gneiss deposit..."
Well, Fang Chen can understand.
Mineral deposits are mineral points that can be constantly refreshed and never depleted. They can earn a steady stream of income. Anyone who occupies it will be a steady cornucopia of treasure, and no one will give up.
At this time, the middle-aged man said again:
"I just heard from my brother that you just came here. Are you coming to play or to develop here? Have you joined the team?"
Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said:
"I haven't decided where to develop yet. I plan to go around a few living planets first, and then I will decide where to develop."
The middle-aged man said with a smile:
"I am Zhou Shaohang, the squadron leader of the 7th Independent Squadron of the Ember Team. Our team hangs out near the Holy Judgment Galaxy. We have our own star port. There are more than a dozen Zhong'an systems where we can mine safely. With your strength, brother, you can become an elite member. , it’s no problem to be a squad leader.”
