Chapter 113: A Helpless Decision

"Atlas, with Voyager's current condition, will we really be able to reach another star system 100% without any problems?" Zhou Xin asked seriously.

"Well, maybe." The little girl on the screen suddenly became a little hesitant, and after a while, she replied in a stumbling manner, "Probablyβ€”there is an eighty percent or more success rate." ”

"That means it's not entirely successful, is it?" Hearing this answer, Zhou Xin's brows couldn't help frowning, and then he whispered to himself, "If that's the case, then it's a little difficult." ”

"Actually, it's fine." As soon as Zhou Xin's words fell, Atlas hurriedly explained, "We will definitely be able to reach the nearest star system. The failure rate of less than 20 percent refers to some unforeseen anomalies that occur in the Voyager's warp flight, which has not yet been fully repaired, due to the inability to withstand the environment in the warp space. Once this happens, we just need to get out of the warp flight state in time. It's nothing more than that you can't fly at warp speed for the rest of the journey, and you can only fly at sub-light speed using the main engine. ”

"Even that's troublesome enough." "It seems that we had better stay here a little longer, so that at least the Voyager's shell can be repaired more perfectly." ”

"It's useless." Again, the little girl explained, "What needs to be considered here is the overall structure of the ship, and the key to restoring the overall structure is not the increase or decrease of the numbers used to describe the overall repair progress, but the repair status of certain important locations." For example, the most obvious impact on the overall structure of the Voyager's hull today is the large dent under the front. As long as the dent hasn't been repaired, even if everything else has been repaired, there is still a certain chance that the Voyager's shell structure will still have problems during warp flight. But Brother Captain, you also know that not only the dent, but also many key positions on the ship's hull can not be repaired in a short period of time. Soβ€”"

"I see." Zhou Xin nodded. After a short period of thought, he asked, "Where have those ships of unknown civilization gone now?" ”

"We've reached the open space between the giant planet and the planet Norsan." Atlas replied, "It is expected to be in just over an hour to reach the vicinity of the orbit of Nexan." ”

"In that case, we should have a little more time." Zhou Xin first muttered to himself, and then said to everyone, "Presumably, no matter how fast the other party's actions are, it will take a certain amount of time to thoroughly search the space near the orbit of Nuoshan Planet. So I think it's good for us to stay here just yet, whether it's to continue repairing the ship or whatever, if it's just to increase the success rate of our next journey. When the other party has finished inspecting the vicinity of Noble Planet and moved the search target to other places, we will set off again. ”

"This is too risky, and if something goes wrong, as long as any of the other party's spacecraft is out of our monitoring range, the results it can cause are probably not what we can imagine." ’

So it's good not to let this happen.'' He then instructed the Voyager, "Let the probes left near the planet Nosan keep a constant eye on every ship of an unknown civilization." Each spacecraft is to have at least three, nay, ten probes behind it to keep an eye on it. If you notice any unusual behavior on the other side, you must report it at any time. ”

"Understood."

Now that Zhou Xin has officially made a decision, the others in the command cabin will no longer continue to raise objections. At the same time, Zhou Xin subconsciously comforted himself after giving the order to the Voyager, "Maybe it will take a long time for them to be able to search the vicinity of Nuosan, or after searching the vicinity of Nuosan, they will think that we have left this star system and will not search other areas anymore." Of course, he doesn't have much hope for such an idea, so he just casually talks about it.

However, to Zhou Xin's surprise, those spaceships belonging to unknown civilizations actually had unimaginable ability to act. Just four days after the other party appeared, Zhou Xin heard the last thing he wanted to hear from the Voyager.

"Your Excellency, the probe has observed an anomaly in the actions of one of the alien ships." On this day, just as Zhou Xin was eating, the voice of the Voyager suddenly came from the communicator on his body. Hearing the news, Zhou Xin immediately put down the lunch he had just taken a bite of, and then rushed back to the command cabin as fast as he could.

As soon as the door of the command cabin opened, Zhou Xin asked eagerly, "How's the situation?" Where has that anomalous ship flown to? ”

"Brother Captain, rest assured for the time being." The answer to the question was not Voyager, which had just made the report, but Atlas, "It is true that a ship belonging to an unknown civilization has left the orbital range of the planet Nosan. But instead of flying to where we are, the ship flew in the direction of the inner orbit, and it seems that it should be exploring the area near the innermost planet. ”

"But it means that the spaceship's search of the area near the planet Nosan has come to an end, otherwise the ship would not have left its original search area." At this time, Dart, who got the news, appeared behind Zhou Xin.

"It's only been a little over three days, and they've completed such a massive search?" Zhou Xin's tone looked a little incredulous, "This speed is too fast, we haven't even done anything in such a short period of time." ”

But in the end, he could not believe the facts, and in the following very short time, the second and third spacecraft also left their original positions one after another, and flew towards the inner orbit of the star system.

"At this pace, we'll have six days at most." Looking at the screen, Dart spoke, "You'll have to make a decision sooner rather than later, we'll at least have to stay away from the current planet's orbit." ”

Also looking at the picture on the screen, Zhou Xin found that the other party, for the sake of prudence, did not transfer all the spaceships away from the vicinity of Nuoshan Planet, but left three spaceships for surveillance, which made him have to give up the idea of playing hide and seek in the star system with the other party. So, after a moment of silence, Zhou Nobunaga sighed, "It seems that it's time for us to leave......
