317 Sunk

Everyone was stunned by the mantis man on the crystal.

Needless to say, this is an extremely rare ninth-level wormhole. But endless insect corpses are piled up in a ninth-level wormhole, what kind of thing is this? Is this mantis man an evolution of a ninth-level female worm? Is there really a god-level powerhouse who made a move, or did it order the endless Zerg people to hug around and use their life force evolution to cause all this in front of them?

Is it still alive?

One question after another lingers in everyone's consciousness.

The crystal layer reflects the light of the artificial sun, making the shape of the mantis man so dazzling, everyone's mind and attention are attracted to it, not noticing that the outside world is changing, and a terrible disaster is coming.

Until a screeching siren sounded above all ships and ships.

"Warning, the gravitational field is disturbed; Warning, the gravitational field is disturbed. Please leave immediately, please leave immediately......"

Everyone woke up, and then the frightened voice of the team in charge of oblique monitoring in the far sky was heard: "The cosmic sea is forming a terrifying sea vortex, the speed is very fast, you must leave the ...... immediately"

Everyone in the center of the floating island was shocked, and without waiting for Guan Tong's order, they drove the spaceship to accelerate out of the sky.

According to the plan, in the event of a critical situation, the instructions of the monitoring team are above all else, and even Guan Tong, as the person in charge, must carry them out. Because for the curvature drive, the person in charge has not finished an order, and he can already run a long enough distance to greatly improve the probability of escape.

The monitoring screen shared by the monitoring team appeared on the fleet's communication channel, and I saw that a vast cosmic sea like a starry sky was distorting diagonally, and a spiral vortex visible to the naked eye had formed. And the floating island they are on, like an inconspicuous ball in the swirl of the sea, is rapidly rolling into the abyss.

The fleet accelerated and flew outward, and most of the fast ones had already left the range of the sea whirlpool, and a small number of them were still in the sky above the sea whirlpool. In the terrifying gravitational field, it seems that space is distorted, causing their curvature to be unstable, and the direction of their escape is sometimes east and west, up and down, like dragonflies struggling in the headwind, and the speed is far from the level it should be.

The curvature is unstable, which is the most feared problem of the curvature drive, not only the direction is disordered, but the speed will also be chaotic, like a headless fly. The gravitational field inside the galaxy is formed in a regular and balanced way of operation for a long time, and it is rare for it to affect the curvature drive. However, from time to time, the wild area will encounter the cosmic force field that appears inexplicably, distorting the space, and causing this confusion to the curvature drive.

It is very likely that the current large swirl in the cosmic sea was caused by a tsunami in another sea area some time ago that caused a large displacement of many floating islands and the disorder of the internal gravitational field.

"Overclocking Outputs Escape!" Guan Tong's flagship was originally far away from the floating island, and it was the first batch of spaceships to get out of danger, and when he saw the scene in the rear, he controlled his emotions and ordered in a calm tone as much as possible.

The struggling battleship suddenly increased the output of the curvature engine, overclocked to generate a more powerful force field, forcibly maintained its own curvature, and finally got rid of the influence of the distorted force field generated by the sea swirl and escaped from a safe distance.

"Ling Qi hasn't come out yet!" Dong Ni screamed in horror. Guan Tong, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, twitched his heart, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

"Qu Shaocheng's two battleships did not escape, and there were thirteen escort warships, all of which were in the big pit at that time, did not come out!" Cheng Ying reported the situation in a deep voice.

There was a dead silence in the fleet, and although it was known that such an expedition was extremely risky, it was still uncomfortable to actually suffer damage.

"Haixuan's force field is still expanding, and it continues to move away. Engineer Ling Qi...... Qu Shaocheng...... Can you communicate? ”

No one answered, which cast a thick shadow over everyone's hearts. Quantum communication is not affected by this harsh environment, but it is not possible to contact it now, and there is only one possibility, at least their communication equipment is damaged in the distortion of the force field.

The strength of this force field can affect their curvature, and it is also possible to destroy the various matrices inside the ship, after all, the function of the matrix itself is also achieved through various force fields.

In this situation, the people who did not escape are more than lucky. Faced with such a result, the fleet is powerless, it is impossible for them to look back, so swirling in the sea, they simply do not know where the floating island has been swept away. They now have only two options left, to repair the ships that were damaged by the overclock, and then either return with their current gains, or to find other floating islands to continue exploring.

"Go somewhere else!" Guan Tong was silent for a long time and gave an order. More than 1.6 million tons of crystals are less than 20% of the carrying capacity of more than 2,000 warships and spaceships. It took me half a year to get here, so I naturally wanted to be as full as possible.

The fleet moved to other areas, and at the same time, engineers above level 6 dispersed into the ships that escaped from the overclocking and began to preside over repairing the damaged matrix.

……

Deep in the interior of the Cosmic Sea, floating islands are dragged to the unknown sea by the undercurrents of the sea whirlpool.

Ling Qi looked at the exterior imaging and scolded his mother in his heart. This is done by sonar probing, and it is very unclear, only outlined. He turned on the lights around the ship, which made the exterior clearer. Around and above his ship, there were other warships, and the outer layer was an endless worm shell, and he was pressed to the bottom.

They had already escaped from the crater, but just a few kilometers away from the floating island, the force field of the curvature engine was disturbed and destroyed by the powerful force field of the sea swirl. The hull of the ship was unharmed for the time being, but many of the matrices and equipment inside were damaged, and they fell directly back to the bottom of the crater.

The progress bar of the maintenance skill rose and fell in front of him, fell and went up again, and the damage and repair were repeated repeatedly. Subsequently, the insect shells around the crater collapsed, burying the maintenance ship and fifteen other warships at the bottom of the pit. In just two minutes, seawater poured in, seeping through the endless cracks in the shells to the edge of the ship......

"How's it going?" Ao Ying, Changge Rose and others also gathered in the bridge, and asked solemnly.

"It's okay, it's not too bad!" Ling Qi replied.

At this time, in the depths of the sea, and buried deep in the pit, the impact of the distortion force field is very small, and it is just that the entire floating island is swept away by the gravitational force and sea water of the cosmic sea. The gravitational pull of the floating island itself sucked the insect shells and seawater firmly into the pit, but it provided Ling Qi with natural protection. His spacecraft still needs to withstand the pressure of the deep sea.

No longer damaged by the external force field, the maintenance progress bar of the maintenance spaceship was finally read, and Ling Qi also heard Guan Tong's words, but he didn't know how to respond. Falling from a height of 10,000 meters just now, and falling into the bottom of a pit more than ten kilometers away, his spacecraft luckily did not damage the simulated gravity system in the first place, otherwise they might have fallen into a meat pie. But Qu Shaocheng didn't know their situation, and Ling Qi estimated that they were more than lucky.

Just as Ling Qi was thinking this, Qu Shaocheng's voice suddenly sounded in the open radio public channel: "Damn, it's finally fixed...... Is there anyone nearby? Ling Qi, are you here? Our battleship is badly damaged, and only barely resuming sonar transmission, need help! ”

Ling Qi was shocked that this guy's life was so big, he didn't even die like this.

Sonar communication is an accessory function in the communication system, which is simple and easy to repair. It is dedicated to this situation where quantum communication is damaged and radio communication is affected, and sound waves can be propagated through a liquid medium, and then analyzed in the radio channel to achieve the purpose of short-range communication.
