Chapter 17: The Vanishing Group
The scout team currently active in the supernova explosion range, together with mercenaries and expedition teams, has registered a total of 1,62,784 groups, and the members of the group range from 4 to 32 groups. A spherical vacuum area with a diameter of nearly 0.3 light years was formed, and with the information that the huge black fleet flew out of the explosion, there was a faint undercurrent surging in the [Tolfarand] defense line today, whether it was human forces or other civilizations, they were extremely wary of this news, because judging from the images that were currently flowing, this fleet but in terms of size, no force could compete with it.
"There are nearly 70,000 visible motherships, and the number of detailed numbers cannot be confirmed due to the inability to deploy the AITN network, and the depth of the entire fleet is 1.3 AU, so it is impossible to determine the period, so it is speculated that there may be a combination of attack weapons."
After getting this information, Liv's heart shook secretly, in this era of great navigation, the ancestors have made nearly a thousand years of efforts, so that the footprints of human beings can travel all over the galaxy, although the scope of human beings in this thousand years is very vast, but the basic principles of non-military diplomacy and the geometric outbreak of civilization expansion, coupled with the strength of the higher civilizations in the department is almost the same, all kinds of objective reasons still limit the development of the human combat fleet after all, aside from the registration of the three bureaus, Most of them are solo expeditions, not to mention, even the standing combat establishment of the Ninth Bureau, any independent corps of the Fourteenth Corps, which is famous in the galaxy, seems to be unable to compete with the huge fleet presented in front of them.
"70,000 motherships with a depth of 1.3AU? Such a huge force...... Once the war starts, the current delicate balance of the galaxy will fall apart in an instant. ”
Since the [357-UC1700 incident], with the continuous accumulation of news of unknown visitors, it has gradually made the hearts of all the people who are still struggling in the [Tolfarland] defense line seem to have pressed a boulder, and all forces understand that this is a sharp blade that is enough to cut off the competitive weight of either side, it can be said that everyone has been waiting so far, but the waiting for the sword hanging on the head has always been tormenting, not to mention that there is a group of fierce beasts waiting to tear your body apart by your side, Liv at this moment has a complicated heart, as a soldier, she must prepare for the worst, although she believes in Lubo, but the military qualities she has cultivated over the years have made her never able to pin her hopes on someone other than herself, even if this person... It's someone she can trust with her life.
"How long do they expect to arrive?"
Liv asked the assistant next to her as she continued to read the memories of the unconscious soldier in front of her.
"With the theoretical speed of the [Minshu] level, aside from the halfway repair time, it will take at least four months for the road director and his party to reach the front line."
Liv's heart quickly weighed the deployment of the entire [Tolfarand] defense line, although the army deployment on the entire defense line was as high as 43.7 billion, but as one of the two longest defense lines of the six defense lines, even if there were more army deployments, it would be overstretched in this area that stretched for 37,000 light years, and at this moment, Liv couldn't help but close her eyes and thought in her heart:
"Lubo, if it were you, how would you deal with the next chess game..."
It's just that the next scene that Liv saw in the memory of the sergeant in a coma made Liv's heart tremble, and an unknown fear crept up into Liv's heart.
In the sergeant's memory, the other 8 members of the team except him were right in front of his eyes, without any signs, and suddenly disappeared!!
【Lingda・Central Bridge】
It has been a few days since the [Lingda] left the Oort Cloud Customs, but this is still extremely far from the final destination, due to entering the warp space, the [Lingda] has completely lost interaction with the outside information, so Lu Bo and the others have to speculate on the intention of this fleet through known intelligence.
"Mu Han, tell me what you think."
Mu Han, who was sitting in the position of Lu Bo's left-hand deputy director, thought for a while and replied to Lu Bo:
"It's hard to say, but I don't think this fleet is coming for the purpose of invasion, I'm afraid..."
"Refugees!"
The two looked at each other at this time, but they thought of this key at the same time.
"If it is a colony, the scale of this fleet is inevitably too large, and the N15A wormhole is about to collapse, and there are problems with local interaction in the future."
Immediately following Mu Han's analysis, Lu Bo followed:
"If it is a full-scale war, according to common sense, a fleet of this size should establish the logistics support for a long-term war as soon as it lands, but in the nearly one month since it landed, this fleet has no directional targets, and the speed of advance is extremely slow.
After listening to the analysis of the two, the thrones, who had been silent for a long time in the first mate position on the side, finally spoke
"Do you think they're waiting for someone to negotiate?"
Hearing this, Lu Bo fell into deep thought, but Mu Han shook his head, looked at the warp space flying by on the curtain in front of the bridge and said slowly:
"My gut tells me that maybe the fleet is facing an unprecedented dilemma inside."
The interstellar voyage that lasted for more than four months was lonely and lonely, and everyone immersed themselves in their busy work to dilute this lingering loneliness, and the same is true for Lidian, after analyzing the operation of the entire [Himmler-class] program, Lidian began to focus on the module optimization of the [Himmler-class] force field shield program.
[Himmler class] uses a scale shield generator, different from the old-fashioned combined independent shield generator, the earliest old-fashioned shield group will be a number of single large shield force field generators distributed at various points of the spacecraft, although the performance of the large shield force field generator is stable, but in the face of a single-direction strike, the constant power to support the large force field in the power consumption is stretched, in order to make up for this shortcoming, in the following time, the research and development of the spaceship energy shield is roughly oriented in three directions, One of them is the Scale Shield Spawn Group.
The old-fashioned shield combination is because of excessive power consumption, although the performance is reliable, but eventually it is gradually replaced by the scale combination with simple structure and convenient replacement and lower power consumption, but the scale combination is always facing a problem at present, the simple integrated structure makes the sensitivity of the sensor of the scale shield significantly weaker than the old-fashioned large shield generator with a complex structure, and a series of series problems include the instability of the recognition time, the shortening of the buffer distance, and so on.
As an improved version of the [Himmler class], the Lingda has a total length of 12.7km and the whole ship covers more than 36 million scale shield modules, but the corresponding team is less than 50 people up and down the [Source Machine], although Lidian seems to be cute, but he is definitely not a fool when he graduated from Berkeley with the 6th grade in his major in the same period, and the successive lucks are not a good thing for his age.
"The young man is too ambitious, and it is easy to fall into the trap."
Whether it is the strange awakening obtained by accident, or the inheritance of the chairman of the [Source Machine] that was smashed out of thin air, and the current internship of less than a month has embarked on the mission of the expedition to the field, everything is gradually calming down again and again, just ask him is just an ordinary person who came out of the world tree, there is no mission like the high-level gene person who was born, and there is no family power behind him like Joe, but in this short period of less than two months, Lidian found that his life trajectory seemed to have happened a 180°The Great Deviation.
It is precisely like this, after leaving Joe's residence in the asteroid belt, an inexplicable sense of crisis quietly rose from Lidian's heart, if it weren't for the fact that he was no stranger to the [Tolifaran] defense line, Lidian was afraid that he wouldn't even want to board this ship, and the only thing Lidian wanted to do at this moment was to ensure the team, no! Maybe it's yourself! Make sure you can get to Tolly Flange safely.
"Now that I've figured out the structure, it's time to switch to my home field."
Lidian sighed in his heart, as a navigator and strategic analyst, Lidian has the authority to modify the shield protocol, AITN radiation expansion, Lidian quickly connected the personal protocol to the ship's core AITN network, what he has to do is to use your own accidentally acquired ability to make up for the lack of defense system.
The terrifying power that transcends time......
