Feng Yu didn't know that he was the Council's chosen successor, but he knew that Edward had agreed to his trip to the galaxy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Such a decision would require a huge risk, as the Tempest and its crew would be exposed during a routine inspection through the Phi Tai Wh wormhole, which would inevitably lead to a siege by the Combined Fleet of the Three Powers guarding the Fei Tai Wh area.

Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a half-month civilian modification of the appearance, and transform the appearance of the "Tempest" into the appearance of a civilian transport ship. As for the interior of this destroyer, as long as Monica is present, everything is not a problem.

And the benefits of traveling to the galaxy are also obvious, allowing Fengyu to get his new car three months early. This is certainly not to satisfy his personal desires, but is equally beneficial to the organization.

Looking at this issue from a strategic perspective, the sooner you strengthen yourself, the sooner you can suppress your opponent, it can be said that every second counts, let alone three full months. And this is what Edward values the most.

As a result, the second phase of the "Quasi-Ace Squad" plan was postponed for half a month, and the implementation site was transferred from the New African Galaxy to the Milky Way, the birthplace of mankind.

According to Awa-Ker's information, there are a large number of paramilitary industries under the umbrella of NO in the galaxy, just like Awa-Ker's own industrial robot factories and shipyards, which can be stripped of their civilian coats and converted to military use at any time.

As a permanently neutral country, the most suitable industry in the Earth Federation for this kind of dog meat has been steadily developing in peace. Compared to the chaotic New African Galaxy, the Milky Way is simply a pure land, with no wars, no pirates, no conflicts, and the Earth Federation has no reason to inspect these large corporations that can be converted to military forces at any time.

If it is placed in a new Asia where there is a lot of war or a new Africa where piracy is rampant, this type of factory is very suspicious, and it is true that most of the military equipment is produced and sold privately to pirates or major conglomerates.

Because they are not suspicious and not inspected, NO and Awa-Ker have coincidentally placed their core military research and development institutions in the galaxy. NO's "Edge of the World" military base has been uprooted by Fengyu, and Awa-Ker's own industrial robot factory that produces the AM series of mobile suits and a shipyard that produces the "Tempest" Storm-class destroyers are also thriving here.

The cunning rabbit has three holes, so naturally there is more than one military-industrial base. Feng Yu's return to the galaxy this time is just the right time to take advantage of these foundations.

After half a month of transformation, the slender "Tempest" grew a big belly, and the maximum diameter was expanded from 43 meters to 75 meters, just like a transport ship.

As the captain of the ship, Luo Yunxi is the most distressed person. Her beloved ship has doubled in size, except that the target is larger during battle, and the turret is also blocked, so the extra space is useless.

Fortunately, the extra part is very easy to dismantle, unlike the renovation that takes half a month, and the demolition work can be completed in only two days. Fengyu promised that he would definitely tear down those burdens before the war, and Luo Yunxi was a little relieved.

In fact, with the fighting style of the "Tempest", it really doesn't matter if the disguise is dismantled or not. Since its commissioning, this destroyer has not seriously engaged in an artillery battle with an enemy ship, and has basically bullied the opponent in a state of optical invisibility.

In September of SC0105, when everything was ready, the "Tempest" was transformed into a civilian transport ship belonging to an interstellar logistics company, and it passed through the New African Galaxy Earth Federation Control Zone, joined a mixed temporary caravan, and went to the Phi Tai WH to cross the wormhole.

There are many pirates rampant in the New African Galaxy, and there are basically no merchant ships traveling alone in this area, otherwise they will not be able to survive even if they encounter pirates, let alone goods. The former warlords of the New African Kingdoms turned pirates had a deep hatred for immigrants or what they called "renegades", and never survived a lone merchant ship.

Unlike large consortia, which have a large flow of goods, they can form caravans on their own for interstellar voyages and establish their own private armies for escort. This kind of mixed caravan is usually formed by the merchant ships of small and medium-sized enterprises, and then raise funds to hire security companies to escort them, and wait until they arrive at the wormhole and then go their separate ways.

With the combat effectiveness of the "Tempest" that can compete with the 9th Fleet, they are naturally not afraid of pirates, but in order to cross the border smoothly, they have to keep a low profile, so that it is not easy to arouse suspicion by blending into the caravan.

The "Tempest" joined the caravan in the WQ2 star field, the penultimate station in the Earth Federation's occupation zone, and the specific contact affairs were naturally completed by Monica, an intelligence officer with the "illusion" ability. The caravan leader also sent a representative to board the ship for a simple inspection, which was to prevent the prohibited ships from mixing into the fleet and affecting the safety of the entire caravan.

Unfortunately, with Monica here, they are destined not to notice that the "Tempest" has surpassed ordinary prohibited ships, and is simply a state-of-the-art standard warship, with an astonishing 1,000 times the speed of light jump ability.

There are still 10 days to sail from here to the non-Taiwh area, and if it weren't for the slow speed of these slow transport ships, the Tempest could have arrived in two days.

WQ2 is the same as WG1 is the main channel field, but other than that, it has no development value, except that it is located in the main channel connecting the Feitai WH and Kilimanjaro fields.

Because WQ2 is not adjacent to the Fei Tai Wh, it is not a strategic location, and there is not even a local garrison fleet here, except for a shipping center that supplies merchant ships. Anyway, the caravans have their own escort fleets, and it doesn't matter whether the local garrison fleet exists or not, and the Earth Federation, which claims to be permanently neutral, simply saves this part of the budget.

The WQ2 shipping center is even more lively than the WG1 of the UAC, with more than a dozen caravans coming and going, and there are hundreds of merchant ships plus escort armed ships. The shipping center had to take restrictive measures, allowing only ships in need of replenishment to berth at the airport, and the rest of the ships were all berthed on the orbit.

After a simple resupply at WQ2, the caravan continued its journey towards the Phi Tai Wh. They will first make a curvature flight to the entrance to the main channel of the Kuiper Belt, from where they will leave the field for their next stop.

According to international air traffic regulations, ships can fly curvature on the way to the main channel of the Kuiper Belt after leaving port, except in restricted areas specific to each country, but the route must be selected in accordance with the law of rotation.

The so-called revolution law refers to the orbit and direction of the ecliptic disk of the star field. Roughly speaking, the ship must follow the direction and orbit of the revolution to avoid colliding with an oncoming ship or other man-made or natural celestial body in a curvature flight where it is impossible to observe the external situation. This is the same as the uniform right or left driving in two-dimensional plane traffic.

Fengyu used to take basically warships, no matter which star field he was in, he basically took military routes, and it was the first time he came into contact with such a thing as the law of revolution. Fortunately, Luo Yunxi, who graduated from the battleship command major, understands this, otherwise it would be a small trouble, and it would be troublesome to expose the essence of the battleship of the "Storm".

The distance from the WQ2 shipping centre to the main channel of the Kuiper Belt is about 15 AU, but if you follow the law of revolution, the distance increases to 25 AU, which takes a little more than half an hour.

After exiting the curvature flight state, the Kuiper belt is already visible to the naked eye. After another 15 minutes on a regular cruise, the caravan will enter the main channel. The length of the main channel is also about 25 astronomical units, and the curvature of the flight can be carried out in sections according to the different conditions of different sections to save time.

Because it is the main channel connecting the Feitai Wh and Kilimanjaro star fields, it has been specially renovated here. Most of the flight segments can be flown in curvature, and only a few middle sections with high meteorite occurrence need to be flown in a regular way. Therefore, after about two hours in the main channel, you can leave the Kuiper Belt and re-enter clean airspace where you can fly in curvature or jump.

And the two hours in the main channel are the most dangerous time of the voyage, and if space pirates appear, they are basically in this area. It is reported that in the WQ2 star field, an average of 1.3 pirates will be encountered for every 100 caravans that pass, which is a very high percentage.

And today, Fengyu's luck is obviously "good", and the first time he pretended to be a merchant ship, he encountered pirates blocking the way.
