Yi Chen stretched, stood up from the command chair, shook his head and muttered to himself: "Oh, I didn't expect that the X-type escort boat looks okay, but the materials used are definitely cutting corners. As an imperial military Battleships, like civilian passenger ships, need to wear seat belts when entering space from the surface of a planet. How stingy! Wow, I wonder when I will be able to sit leisurely in the command chair of the flagship while drinking a sweet drink. Taking off and landing on the planet.”
No one in the cockpit listened to Yi Chen's thoughts. Most of them are Space Marine soldiers. It takes timing and luck to become a crew member of a battleship. Now that they have finally got the opportunity to become a crew member of a battleship, they still desperately want to seize it. At this moment, they are all diligently looking after the systems they are responsible for managing.
Communications Officer Bell looked at the holographic screen in his holographic helmet and said: "Sir, a new order came from the command room, requiring us to rush to the (,,) coordinate point to gather."
When Yi Chen heard Bell's words, his originally disappointed expression immediately became tense. He nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, execute the order and set off." After doing so, he sat back on the command chair neatly, and at the same time I couldn't help complaining in my heart: "It's a boring ceremony. The commander must give a lecture first and then train in groups. We should simulate entering the war state as soon as we enter the universe, so that we can more effectively train the capabilities of each warship, huh." , in a real war, the enemy will not give your commander a period of self-expression speech time."
Treya received the coordinate data synchronized by Bell and entered it into the driving system. Then she pressed a button and said: "Enter the target coordinates. The No. 108-3 Arrive at the meeting point!" After saying that, he released the rudder in his hand and started busy with other things.
In the alien world, in order to prevent the optical brain from harming intelligent creatures if it acquires self-awareness, any optical brain must have the ability to control weapons. Therefore, the real pilots of warships of various countries are still intelligent creatures. However, intelligent creatures will also get tired after driving a battleship for a long time. In order to solve this problem, a moderate function was designed, that is, the main control optical brain of the battleship can temporarily replace the battleship pilot to control the battleship to sail in space. However, During this process, the weapon system on the battleship must be locked, so that the entire battleship becomes equivalent to a civilian ship.
After everyone heard Treya's words, they immediately understood that the No. 108-3 Type Recharge your batteries.
Yi Chen, who was waiting boredly to arrive at the meeting point, suddenly found that a woman's holographic figure flashed on the holographic screen of his holographic helmet. Although it was only for a short moment, it did not escape Yi Chen's unusual sensitivity. Eye.
Yi Chen noticed an indescribable smile on the corner of the woman's mouth, and was shocked.
Although Yi Chen recognized that the holographic figure was Avril, Avril's smile was a bit meaningful, and he was worried that Avril, a super hacker, wouldn't make any special moves.
Just when Yi Chen was about to say something, the hull of the No. 108-3 Up, unable to move.
Yi Chen knew without thinking that Avril was definitely causing trouble. Avril could easily control the GR10 lander power armor, so it would not be difficult for Avril to control the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat.
But Yi Chen still pretended not to know and shouted: "What's going on?"
Treya struggled to press the button in front of her to call up the relevant data. When she looked at the holographic screen, she couldn't help but said in shock: "Ah, our current acceleration is 0.003 times the speed of light/second!"
Everyone at the scene was shocked when they heard this. They all knew very well that the maximum acceleration of the No. 108-3 Twice it! The acceleration of this X-type escort boat exceeds the acceleration of the xF-305 delta-wing space fighter. How can it have such a powerful acceleration capability?
Costa, who was in charge of the power system, immediately gritted his teeth and braced himself, tapping the buttons on the console with difficulty, trying to check the relevant data of the power system. After a while, he was as shocked as Treya and said: "The output of the engine The power is 200%, and the temperature of the core components exceeds the limit, and there is a possibility of melting at any time, which may cause a big explosion of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat!"
At this time, Treya violently pressed the button in front of her while shouting in disbelief: "No, the autopilot state of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat cannot be released!"
The first mate Lavi, who was not far away from Yi Chen, also stood up desperately. After checking the main control optical brain system of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat, she shouted in surprise: "No. 108-3 X-type. The main control optical brain system of the escort boat is out of control!"
At this moment, the atmosphere in the bridge room was extremely tense. Everyone had just driven the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat into space for training for the first time, and encountered such an unbelievable thing. They were a little panicked and at a loss. He looked at their battleship commander Yi Chen.
Yi Chen gave a helpless smile. Although he knew that Avril would not hurt him, but causing the No. 108-3 He spoke to calm his frightened subordinates.
However, the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat suddenly began to launch an S-shaped snake maneuver in space. This move immediately caused the crew members of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat to stagger around, trying to grab something to steady themselves. Neither can be done.
As a result, all the crew members in the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat fell to the floor one after another. After more than 10 minutes, the speed of the No. 108-3 A mechanical optical-brain synthesized voice: "Arrived at the scheduled rendezvous point, the autopilot state of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat is released."
After Treya heard the sound, she quickly struggled to get up from the floor, sat in the driver's seat, checked it carefully and immediately shouted in surprise: "No. 108-3 X-type escort boat is back to normal, and it can be fully Under control!" Then others shouted one after another that everything was back to normal.
Yi Chen shook his head vigorously, hoping to make the dizziness disappear faster. He sighed helplessly in his heart and thought quietly:
"Oh, Avril has been a bit tempered recently. She is like a rebellious girl in adolescence. I refused her invitation to visit her home in the White Castle in the cosmic holographic network a few times, which made her unhappy. , isn’t this how you take revenge on me!”
Then Yi Chen had to admit that Avril's strength was a little too incredible. Is she a super hacker? How could she be far beyond his own understanding of super hackers? She was even better than those super hackers who appeared in movies and TV shows. It's awesome, just like controlling the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat this time. This requires not only hacking capabilities, but also advanced knowledge of mechanics.
Yi Chen's suspicion was not wrong at all. Avril did not have any mechanical knowledge and was unable to make the No. 108-3 With your brain, you can learn any knowledge surprisingly quickly, so it’s not surprising.
The last time Yi Chen escaped from the Fuluo Federation, the Song of Peace he and the Wild Wolf mercenary group took in order to get rid of the pursuit fleet headed by the Free Will sent by the Yuzhong couple, under the guidance of a talented mechanical engineer With the efforts of Adkins, he completed an extreme operation even crazier than the current No. 108-3 X-type escort boat.
It was also the Song of Peace that ran too far beyond its limit, and finally ran out of steam and was completely scrapped, turning into a steel coffin, trapping Yi Chen and the Wild Wolf mercenary group on the edge of a battlefield in the Pirate Nebula. .
Thanks to the 'Loki', which was going to trade with the Komos planet, it encountered the scrapped 'Peace Song' there, and used a tractor beam to pick them up in the 'Loki''s cargo bay.
At that time, Avril discovered Yi Chen's traces through the cosmic holographic network, and arrived in time to rescue Yi Chen and the Wild Wolf mercenary group on the 'Rocky'.
During this process, Avril copied all the data in the 'Song of Peace' in order to understand Yi Chen's experience, and discovered the various amazing performances of the 'Song of Peace' in escaping pursuit, so by the way Then Avril also learned various methods used by Adkins, such as making the ship's engine run beyond its limit, modifying various mathematical models to DIY the ship's engine, and waiting for a single engine to quickly enter hyperspace.
You must know that Avril's current abilities are beyond the imagination of intelligent creatures. She can even use the Aleman Republic's stealth spacecraft to create a 'Dream' with further performance. It is easy to learn Adkins's methods.
Just like studying the Aleman Republic's stealth spaceship to create a more powerful 'Dream', after Avril learned Adkins' methods and combined with her own vast knowledge, she could easily make an ordinary ship The ship doubles and operates for a short period of time.
Yi Chen didn't go to the cosmic holographic network to accompany him, which made Avril, who had a special affection for Yi Chen, a little moody, so she couldn't help but play a prank on Yi Chen.
The people in the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat naturally did not know that Avril was behind everything. After they woke up, they were ready to check carefully to find out what went wrong, so as to avoid encountering her again in the future. When faced with a similar situation, I still feel overwhelmed and confused.
Before everyone could start, a thunderous exclamation made everyone temporarily forget about the inspection.
Lei Ming pointed at the holographic screen shared by everyone and shouted: "Come and see!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the holographic screen, and they were all stunned. They saw densely packed shadows of thousands of warships appearing on the holographic screen.
Richard was the first to wake up. He quickly called up the radar image, and then said with a relaxed face: "They are all X-type escort boats. This is the scheduled meeting point. It only took 13 minutes to reach the destination , and also experienced a space jump in the middle. The acceleration of the No. 108-3 I miss the extraordinary ability of the X-type escort boat No. 108-3 just now.
When everyone heard Richard's words, they all relaxed after being a little nervous. Lei Ming couldn't help but said to himself excitedly: "Haha, I didn't expect us X-shaped escort boats to be so powerful together. Well!"
Yi Chen glanced at those It's a bit disdainful, and it doesn't bring any excitement.
The "Deep Space" battleship battle game is a 100% simulation of the real world. If you didn't know it in advance, it would be difficult to tell the truth from the fake. The only thing that interests Yi Chen is that anyway, it is a real starry sky. At this point, the "Deep Space" battleship battle game cannot compare.
Yi Chen waved his hands half-heartedly and said, "Let's move towards them too!"
Communications officer Bell and pilot Treya immediately responded: "Roger, sir!"
Bell sent the friend-or-foe identification code to the X-type frigate battleship group in the distance to confirm his identity. Treya controlled the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat and slowly sailed towards the battleship group.
Before she understood what happened just now, Treya would never dare to activate the autopilot system of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat again.
Yi Chen's No. 108-3 X-type escort accepted the command of the battleship group and sailed forward little by little, lining up at the rear of the battleship group.
Suddenly, Yi Chen and the others were stunned when they saw the images displayed on the holographic screen.
After a while, Yi Chen sighed and said, "This is the famous Interstellar Rift Valley!"
Everyone in the bridge room did not say anything immediately after hearing Yi Chen's words. Instead, they quietly looked at the wreckage of some battleships that occasionally appeared on the holographic screen, as well as the spiral galaxy in the distance that looked like a large disk.
The disc-shaped spiral galaxy in the distance is called the Nevada Galaxy. It is the border galaxy between the Fulo Federation and the Kabasi Empire. Between the Tyrannosaurus Galaxy and the Nevada Galaxy in the Kabasi Empire, there is a void zone 50 light-years wide and 20,000 light-years long, which is the so-called Interstellar Rift.
There is a real void in the Great Interstellar Rift. The deep space of the universe looks vast and empty, but in fact it is not empty. There are interstellar dust, small meteorites, stray planets, black holes, etc. scattered in many places. Although there are very few, they are definitely not empty, let alone called it. Empty. In such a large area as the Great Interstellar Rift Valley, it is truly bare, with nothing there. Not even a fist-sized meteorite, not even a microgram of interstellar dust, or even a single charged particle. It would be unreasonable to call it void. Not excessive.
It is as if in the deep space of the universe, the two spaces suddenly split apart, leaving a huge empty space canyon. This is why everyone calls it the Great Interstellar Rift Valley.
The Great Interstellar Rift Valley has become the natural boundary between the Kabasi Empire and the Fulo Federation. For countless years, disputes between the two countries have mostly occurred on both sides of the Great Interstellar Rift Valley. In the Great Interstellar Rift, the two countries have sunk tens of millions of warships of all levels, and the number of humans turned into cosmic dust here has reached an astonishing number of trillions. Of course, although this number seems large, it is not particularly outrageous compared to the millions of years and the combined population of the two countries of tens of trillions.
Since the X-type escort boats had not arrived yet, Yi Chen and the others had to stay bored in the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat in a daze.
I don't know how long it took, but Yi Chen and the others, who were originally at the edge of the rear of the battleship group, were also surrounded by the battleships that arrived later and became the center of the battleship group.
At this time, there was a 'ding dong' sound on the holographic screen, and the holographic figure of Iphini, the commander of the empire's h1860 base, appeared. Everyone stood up quickly and saluted.
And Yi Chen pricked up his ears, because the appearance of Iphini meant that all the X-type escort boats had arrived. At the same time, Yi Chen also used this method to show respect for Iphini.
Over the past few days, during the simulation training at the Empire's h1860 base, Yi Chen had also received several interviews from Iphini. Iphini also encouraged Yi Chen to dedicate more loyalty to the Empire and he would definitely be promoted and re-employed by the Empire in the future.
Yi Chen thinks that he has left a good impression on his immediate boss, Iphini. He must maintain this image well, which will be of great benefit to his promotion in the future.
Iphini just returned the salute casually. It was impossible for her to know whether the soldiers on each X-type escort boat had saluted. This communication was only a unilateral release and could not see the appearance of the crew members on the 5,000 X-type escort boats.
There is nothing we can do about it. If more than 5,000 sub-images are displayed at the same time on the holographic screen of the Empire's H1860 base, even if it can be displayed, each image will be small and out of shape, and the eyes will not be able to tell who is who.
Iphini's slightly cold voice came from the battleship's radio: "Now, our first actual combat training is held in this interstellar rift zone. I believe everyone knows that this zone is full of wreckage of battleships, and even some Some high-density energy clusters formed by the explosion of battleships have not disappeared yet, so when you are training, you should pay attention to avoiding those objects floating in the universe. Okay, I won’t talk nonsense, every 500 The X-type frigates form a group and are divided into 10 groups to start a mixed battle. The captain of the first X-type frigate in each group is the commander of the group."
When Iphini said this, ten groups of long numbers appeared on the holographic screen. Yi Chen hurriedly shouted: "Don't be idle, quickly see if I am the commander of a group!" It was quite official! Fascinated.
First officer Ravi said without even looking at the holographic screen: "Sir, our number is 108 and we belong to the first group. It is impossible for you to become the commander of this group."
The communication draft Bell said: "The commander of battleship No. 001 sent a message asking us to move to the coordinates of (..) for group gathering."
Yi Chen was surprised at first, and then said with some envy and hatred: "What? The Empire H1860 base just issued the order, and that guy sent the order so quickly? I'm sorry, did that guy have it early? Now that I know, I will definitely be the commander of the group!"
Treya, the pilot of No. 108-3 Type Start moving towards the target location.
The reason why Treya was so direct was because the Imperial H1860 Base had ordered Ship No. 001 to be the flagship of the group. According to the practice of the Imperial Army, orders issued by the flagship were given the first priority. Of course, it is also because Treya knows that although Yi Chen has been very arrogant recently, he is not arrogant enough to disobey orders, and he will definitely carry out the orders of the 001 ship in the end. In the end, Treya played some tricks. After all, she was Yi Chen's former girlfriend, and she wanted to use this method to make Yi Chen pay attention to her again.
Now Treya was preparing to listen to Yi Chen's weak tone of voice giving the order to set off immediately. Trei has long understood Yi Chen's temperament. Whenever Yi Chen encounters something disappointing, he will become listless. As expected this time, it was still the case. Yi Chen waved his hand feebly and opened his mouth, as if he was about to give the final order.
Treya was disappointed, because Yi Chen seemed to have suddenly thought of something, jumped up suddenly, and shouted in panic: "Activate the protective cover immediately! The radar is scanning at full power around the clock, and the battleship is moving down rapidly!"
Everyone was stunned, but still reflexively carried out Yi Chen's order. The battleship quickly sailed downwards, and the protective shield was raised in an instant.
This abnormal behavior of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat confused the people on the other X-type escort boats that started to move around. They all looked at Yi Chen's No. 108-3 X-type escort boat a little strangely.
At this time, the X-type escort boat below Yi Chen was in bad luck. They all hurriedly avoided the No. 108-3 .
After Yi Chen shouted out the above orders, he immediately shouted to Bell: "Connect all the channels immediately and tell everyone that an enemy is coming!"
Bell obeyed the order and just pressed a few buttons. Hearing Yi Chen's last words, he couldn't help but stop moving and looked up at Yi Chen in surprise.
Everyone in the bridge room stopped moving after hearing this and looked at Yi Chen in disbelief.
Seeing Yi Chen's serious expression, Xiao Yi couldn't help but hesitate for a moment before asking the radar operator Richard: "Richard, did you find anything?"
Richard, who was staring closely at the radar, shook his head suspiciously and said, "Nothing was found. There is no trace of any enemy in the three nearby astronomical units."
Lavi said with some dissatisfaction: "Sir, if you lie about military information, you will have to go to the Imperial Military Court!"
When Richard said that no enemy was found, Treya also stopped controlling the sinking of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat. Everyone looked at Yi Chen, wanting to wait for him to explain everything.
Yi Chen ignored the strange looks from everyone, but yelled at Richard: "Idiot, energy spectrum detection radar!" Then he yelled at Bell: "Hurry up, inform others to open the protective shield immediately, This is an order!"
Listening to Yi Chen's anxious and irritable tone, Richard was stunned for a moment, but he immediately converted the commonly used radar system into an energy spectrum detection radar. But Bell did not immediately carry out Yi Chen's order. He wanted to wait for Richard to see if he could find anything. After all, Bell and Yi Chen didn't get along with Yi Chen much, and there had been a gap some time ago. Now that barrier has only disappeared for a few days, I still don't trust Yi Chen in my heart and will not unconditionally carry out Yi Chen's orders.
Everyone who was looking at Richard suddenly noticed that Richard's face turned pale, and he shouted out loud: "Death Pulse!"
While everyone was surprised, they also discovered that the light of stars coming from the Nevada galaxy on the screen suddenly became brighter and brighter, and the alarm on the No. 108-3 stand up.
That was not ordinary light emitted by the star, but a converted pulse of death.
Death Pulse is not a normal weapon.
A strange energy discovered when studying black holes in the alien world. Its temperature is absolute zero, but it does not radiate any energy outwards. It requires special means to detect it. Under normal circumstances, this strange energy is harmless, but if a special device is used to combine it with the light of the star, it will produce a hugely destructive pulse. This pulse is the death pulse.
Because the dead pulse is mixed in the star's light and propagates, it can silently decompose the target object it hits into elementary particles. Except for the energy spectrum spectrum detection radar, ordinary military radar cannot detect it.
Fortunately, that kind of strange energy is difficult to collect from black holes, and alien worlds rarely use it as a weapon when it combines with the star's light to form a dead pulse.
Just as Yi Chen shouted: "Defense!" the holographic screen was filled with flashes of dazzling light.
Then the hull of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat emitted continuous violent vibrations. The main control optical brain of the No. 108-3 %”, 70%, 55%, 45%. . . . "
As the ship's hull shook violently, the number of the protective shield became lower and lower. When the battleship finally stopped shaking, the energy of the protective shield was only 40%.
Although this scene lasted only a few seconds, everyone felt as if it was as long as decades.
Everyone got up from the floor in shock and hurriedly began to check the damage to the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat.
Bell, who was filled with regret, began to contact other X-type escort boats.
However, while everyone was busy, they quietly looked at Yi Chen who was standing next to the command chair. They couldn't figure out why Yi Chen could predict the attack of Death Pulse in advance.
Yi Chen gently adjusted his holographic helmet. He had also fallen due to violent shaking just now.
This death pulse attack was too sudden. While he wanted to save his No. 108-3 X-type escort boat, he also wanted to notify other X-type escort boats as much as possible. This would be considered a military exploit and would be helpful for promotion. He didn't have time to fix himself on the command chair.
The reason why Yi Chen knew in advance that the enemy was attacking with death pulse was naturally because Avril told him in the holographic helmet.
Although Avril can display the warning directly on the holographic screen, she does not want others to know her existence. In addition, for Avril, as long as Yi Chen can survive, it is enough. Avril is really too lazy to care about the life and death of others.
Of course, Avril Lavigne has long known that as long as the protective cover of the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat is turned on, the death pulses that have crossed the distant space will be so severely weakened that the powerful crossbow cannot penetrate Lu Yi, so it will be unable to defeat the No. 108-3 X-type escort boat. protective cover.
So after that, Avril stayed aside and quietly admired Yi Chen's various performances.
