Watching the fourth fleet retreat, Chu Jungui heard a wise man's voice: "They have indeed retreated. Have they started receiving equipment?"
Chu Jungui glanced at the cargo ships going away and said, "Order them to follow our fleet back and change the delivery location to outer orbit of the galaxy."
All cargo ship captains had no objections this time and honestly reorganized their formation and flew to the new coordinates given by Chu Jungui. Although there are many rebellious people among them, they are not really afraid of death. Even Chu Jungui dared to fire at the dynasty fleet. How dare they do anything? Besides, the order they received was to deliver the goods to light years. In the hand, it is just one more jump now.
At this time, Sino's voice rang out from the three unmarked starships: "Let them go like this? The person who can be sent to do this job must be Su Jian's confidant, or just kill them, the big deal is this The debt is all on me."
A soft but sinister voice appeared on the channel: "The commander this time is an old man who is about to retire. He does not have the courage to go to war with us, and he is of little value. Even Su Jian himself is of little value."
"Su Jian? He hasn't resigned yet. Have you got any news?" Sino didn't know who the voice was, but he could speak in the command channel, so his level should be high.
The voice added: "The last battle has proved that Su Jian is just an office general, not a famous general on the battlefield. So whether he leaves or not, his value will be of little value. And sooner or later, the Fourth Fleet will have to change its personnel. Once The Fourth Fleet has completed its rest and returned to the battlefield. How can the superiors trust the fleet to be handed over to Su Jian again? How can the people below risk their lives for such an incompetent person again? So I say, Su Jian has no value anymore. If there is any , that is, some ridiculous persistence of carbon-based organisms, such as revenge."
Although he felt that the tone of this man's words was a bit strange, Xino still admitted that what he said made sense.
At this time, Chu Jun returned and said: "Xino, you can go back. You will be in trouble if you stay in the dynasty's star domain for a long time."
"Okay, boss, I'll be leaving then. Call anytime if you need anything." Xino was not sloppy at all now. After saying hello, he left with the fleet.
After leaving the battlefield, the atmosphere in the bridge of the Fourth Fleet suddenly became a little strange. At this time, a light cruiser captain in the command channel said: "We clearly have the advantage in terms of force, why don't we fight back?"
The commander cursed in his heart, wondering why you didn't say anything just now. However, he had already made a decision and said calmly: "The responsibility for this decision rests with me alone. I will submit my retirement application when I return. Now each ship executes the order and returns to the base."
He had already said this, and it was not easy for others to say anything else. The fleet quietly began to return.
The commander sat in his seat, staring blankly at the image of the light-year fleet. His eyes fell on a destroyer on the side. This destroyer was very quiet, had no lights, and did not send out any signals, but it just gave him a creepy feeling. This was his intuition based on many years of battlefield experience.
At this moment, Chu Jungui collected the cargo ship and began to return. On the way back, he silently looked at a series of rapidly jumping numbers, frowning slightly. This astonishingly long string of numbers is Brother Dao's somatic cell count, which is increasing at an alarming rate, which makes the experimental subjects a little frightened.
Le Mans appeared in the communication channel, his shiny face full of nervousness, and said: "Boss, something is wrong. After entering space, Brother Dao grew too fast!"
"How fast?" Chu Jungui asked.
"1,100 times faster than the model predicted! At this rate, he can double his growth in 24 hours!"
Chu Jungui asked: "Is there something wrong with your model?"
Seeing that Chu Jungui was so calm, Le Mans calmed down a little and said, "It's possible that the model parameters are set according to the data collected from the interior of the planet. But there is one more thing."
"explain."
Le Mans hesitated and said, "This may be a bit troublesome. According to previous research, there is an upper limit to the quality of single-cell aggregate life, that is, there is a limit to the number of somatic cells. Every time they evolve, they essentially pass Give up certain abilities in exchange for an increase in the upper limit of growth. Previously, the growth rate of wise men in space surged, but there was still an upper limit, but this time Brother Dao has exceeded the theoretical upper limit three times. I have been modifying the parameters, but ...If there are any more modifications..."
"What will happen?"
"This is the predicted extreme form after modifying the parameters. Take a look." Le Mans said and sent a picture.
The picture shows a huge whale-shaped creature, and for comparison, there is a starship next to it. This starship has a unique shape, somewhat round and bulging, and looks like a huge cigar. It is the capital ship that Lightyear is researching and building. This battleship is currently basically finalized, with a length of 2,400 meters and a maximum hull diameter of 500 meters. Such a giant ship that looks like a small city is actually not as big as the giant whale next to it.
For a simple comparison, the giant whale is more than 3,000 meters long and 600 meters in diameter. It is a giant creature that cannot exist on the planet.
Xiaoshuting app
This is the ultimate form of Doug predicted at Le Mans.
After sending the image, Le Mans added: "Boss, don't forget that Brother Dao is our prisoner. He has a high degree of intelligence. Even if the proportion of brain in this form is not high, the absolute mass is also very large. That is to say, its intelligence is at least equivalent to that of a large mastermind, or 10,000 smart people. It has a grudge against us, and we have no real means of restricting it."
Chu Jungui asked: "Wise man, what is your opinion?"
The wise man said: "Our evolutionary paths are different. When I complete my evolution, what I gain is the knowledge of my own path and I don't know its evolutionary branches. I can only ask it for specific knowledge."
"Is there any way to restrain or restrict it?"
"No." The wise man answered quickly.
Chu Jungui nodded and began to think silently. Le Mans added: "Boss, it's too late to send it back now. Although this experience of being exposed to space will increase its upper limit, it is still controllable. Even if it rebels, we can kill it with a backhand. !”
Chu Jungui was really hesitant at this time. Without Brother Dao, Lightyear's development speed would not be a little slower, but 90% slower. But concerns about Le Mans are not unfounded. The wise man is now equivalent to a super mastermind, and he has little fighting power. Once Brother Dao rebels, the wise man will probably be powerless.
"Is there nothing you can do?" Chu Jungui asked Le Mans.
"I'm afraid all my biological and genetic means will be of no use to it."
Chu Jungui weighed it for a long time and finally made up his mind and said: "Continue to implement the plan and let Brother Dao grow."
Le Mans wiped the sweat from his face and said angrily: "I hope this guy has a conscience."
But these words were very unconfident. The things they did to Brother Dao in the past had nothing to do with friendship. Brother Dao was already broad-minded if he didn't hold grudges.
The fleet quickly entered the jump, and when it jumped out again, it arrived at the N7703 galaxy.
Chu Jungui rushed to the starship construction site immediately.
At this moment in the planet's orbit, a huge shipyard has been built, and there are more than 200,000 engineering spacecraft like a swarm. They have a construction capacity of 1 million tons per hour, and are still increasing at a rate of 30,000 per day. . The engineering spacecraft is divided into tens of thousands of teams, each team is commanded by a human engineer and cooperates with several to 10 engineering ships. The engineering ships in the team are all unmanned.
In the distance, four starships formed a cone, guarding Brother Dao in the center.
