Chapter 258: The Ark of the Star Patrol (01)
"The fleet jump is over, the star system has a life response, the covert action device is activated, the reconnaissance plane takes off, the probe is launched, and the fleet follows the flagship out of the local domain."
Twelve warships of various types put an end to a variety of jumps.
"Did you find anything?"
"Nope. There are normal planets around, and the ark of the Gillel people you mentioned has not been found. On a white Cryptoras First Class battleship, the Giller's Propaganda Minister from Cryptolars shook his head.
"Understood. Switch to dimensional oscillation scan mode and high-dimensional scan mode, and leave a beacon after three scans and then the next suspected target. ”
After a period of charging, the newly installed scanning array of the Enterprise was activated and began to scan the surrounding environment.
"Where the hell is it..."Now, with a group of explorer-hungry captains from all civilizations, and the Minister of Propaganda of Cryptoras, they are searching for the appearance of the theoretically extinct race, but it seems that many of them are still alive, hiding on the ark built by their race.
Based on the shortest route of Barreras-Barron-Earth, combined with the prediction map of the planet's orbit in eleven years later, several people came together to work out a reasonable but unreliable search route. After all, reliable sources have only one animated OVA.
"I think it's possible to be in this area." Minister Micela pointed to a celestial realm with no galaxies. "I don't know why, it's just a feeling."
"It's good, that's what I want. The fleet turns, the navigators are synchronized, ready for the jump. Yi An'an said that this was what he was waiting for.
"Hey, it's been dozens of light-years away from our search route. And there's nothing there. ”
"The Gillers have a certain telepathic ability, and even have the skill of leaving the body of the spirit, and it is normal for you, as their remaining clansman, to feel the induction waves they call you back."
"This unscientific statement ......," the propaganda minister frowned.
"No, telepathy is scientific, you just haven't studied it."
"Yes, science is just a worldview. Don't equate science and technology, the basic consensus of various civilizations is that with the development of science and technology, human beings are also evolving. This kind of evolution is usually related to some local element.
For example, because of the influence of GN particles, we are basically changemakers who can use brain quantum waves. In the UC universe next door, the proportion of new humans who can use brain quantum waves has greatly increased due to the influence of the Mega particles. In the Macross universe next door, due to the influence of fold bacteria, there are more and more humans who can listen to and emit fold waves.
People who go to the universe will have more or less superpowers in the end, and you are just evolving a little early. ”
"We haven't been able to use superpowers in the universe for hundreds of years~" Picard silently raised his hand.
Ian looks at Picard, the strongest α-tier mutant in the world... Sorry for the show...
"Actually, I think that you can solve the situation no matter how complicated and severe it is, and it is already a kind ......of superpower to solve it in hand-to-hand combat forever," Ian was speechless when he thought of the Interstellar Federation's way of doing things, even if he didn't encounter the ultimate problem of cosmic extinction one day, the Interstellar Federation group could finally solve it by jumping and boxing together with the captain and first officer.
Elderly Spock quickly retrieved his own memories. "Captain, I think he has a point."
"And that brother can also read minds and show people memories or something?"
"It's just us..."
"You just say that this is not a superpower by human standards."
"Count."
"Isn't this the end of it? Your human beings have an interstellar power flying with you, and they have extremely efficient faster-than-light flight methods, and there are no days when you struggle to survive with conventional navigation in the solar system, and it is normal that you have not evolved some strange abilities. ”
"........." Piccard and others felt that something was wrong, but they didn't know where to start complaining.
"Fleet navigation sync complete."
"The synchronous jump of the whole ship begins."
-- A few hours later --
"The fleet jump is over."
"There's nothing here." Big Sister Gillerstar looked at the familiar coordinates sentimentally. "It was in this region that I was rescued from that ship by the President."
Sister, didn't you say it earlier?
The resentment of the vote directly reached her mind.
"How did I know that this was the place with my finger... I have a star map of that scale and I have several light years on my finger, okay? Minister Missera said helplessly.
"Optical instruments have found that at a distance of twenty-nine lights, there is a wandering planet."
"What the hell are you animals? So clear? Minister Misella frowned at a gray image of a planet that looked like it was connected to the roots of some kind of plant.
"A frenzied camera imported from some fallen daddy that can read the words of a newspaper two hundred light-years away in a garden lounger with its superior telepathic ability." Ian compares the animated screenshots to the appearance of the planets. "The basic characteristics match, the full scan system is online, and I can figure out how to enter this ark. I don't want to rush up and jump around to find my way. ”
"Understood, the probe is fired, and there are no enemies around... Correction, azimuth E47, detected an unknown fleet, is heading towards us.
The number of ships 47, battleships 3 cruisers 11 destroyers 33, is now moving at high speed. Detect a high-energy response and the opponent is in battle mode! ”
"The Hazetra and Destoria classes are on standby in the docks of the Enterprise, and your ships are as brittle as paper, and it's no fun to be wrecked.
A01, 02, 03 advance to meet the enemy, the ships of the Interstellar Federation are in the third echelon, and the fleet of the Galactic Republic is walking with our ships. ”
"Minister Micela, I'm not a soldier who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"
The sailors on the three Cryptoras ships were almost. Is this contempt for them?
"Execute the order."
"Chancellor!"
"This is an expedition mission, and there is no need to sacrifice."
"Yes..."
"The Chancellor... Can you propose to the president to build some big ships... In the past month, how come the big ships in the Integration Department are all shield-heavy-armor and heavy-firepower, and the Integration Department and the Galactic Republic are even using the kind of super battleships of one or two kilometers as a regular capital ship, and the legend says that their real capital ship is a planet fortress? A fortress the size of a planet? ”
"Their ultimate force is the planet of the headquarters of the Ministry of Unification." Minister Missella closed his eyes.
"Which one?"
"All of them. Those planets are artificially created planet fortresses. ”
"Huh? … Eh??? When the soldiers on the bridge realized what they meant, they all exclaimed.
After the three crypto Russ ships stopped in the dock of the Enterprise, the Enterprise, along with the remaining five ships, accelerated to follow the three hunters of the first echelon, pulled up the battle formation and prepared to make contact with the unknown fleet.
