Chapter 5 Before Contact
When Gilena commanded the fleet and fought against the Batarui territory. At the same time, Laxis, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun", led the troops, wandering and cruising in another galaxy.
The fleet, with the Precursor dreadnoughts at its core, was heading towards an area fifty light-years away from the Mass Repeater.
The fleet of more than 60 warships of different types did not encounter any danger along the way. On the way to your destination, you have explored several galaxies along the way.
These galaxies are all regions without mass repeaters, so none of the interstellar civilizations in the galaxy that have joined the Citadel have explored this region.
Compared to the worlds of other interstellar eras that Xiahoulin and the others have experienced, this Mass Effect world has its own very special side.
That is, the interstellar civilization here, when carrying out long-distance interstellar expansion and travel, does not rely on the spaceship's own space to pull this technology. Instead, it relies on the help of mass repeaters, so the territorial distribution map of those interstellar countries is also distributed around these huge buildings.
Therefore, it is very normal that there are large areas to explore within the territory of an interstellar state. After all, in those places, there is no mass repeater, and relying on the ship's light-speed engine alone is time-consuming and laborious.
Of course, these problems that plagued the major forces were not difficult things on Xiahou Lin's side. The brilliant weapon fleet, which has mastered the perfect space drawing technology, launched a search operation in the form of a jump.
Not to mention that among these regions where there are no mass repeaters, Laxis has discovered at least two planets with the presence of Element Zero.
Element Zero is the most important substance in this dimensional world, and it is the basis of all space technology. Mass Effect technology requires this special element, so every planet that contains this substance is precious to any power.
After Laxis discovered these two planets again, she immediately notified Gilena, who was fighting against Bataari. Let the other side immediately send troops, occupy these two places, and then carry out a full-scale mining operation.
After completing the communication, Laxis left two troops on those two planets on standby, and continued to lead the fleet to continue exploring other star fields.
Today, the fleet was close to a star field in the area where the mass repeater was located, but Laxispin didn't want to go any further.
Because Laxis knew that if the fleet under his command appeared near the mass repeater, it would definitely cause a commotion among the aliens.
After all, the huge size of your own warship, even the smallest frigate, is enough to compare to the dreadnought-class capital ships of the main forces of the Divine Citadel in this era. And a behemoth with a hull of more than ten kilometers such as a battleship will definitely cause a huge reaction.
This time, Xiahou Lin and the others came to this plane, but they were not interested in causing a commotion. Their main mission is to explore advanced technology and collect Element Zero as much as possible.
After seeing the report of the reconnaissance plane, Laxis decisively ordered the fleet to turn. Fly directly into the middle of nowhere, avoiding the various ships that travel around the Mass Repeater.
The fleet of optical stealth systems was activated, and soon disappeared into the darkness of space. It began to move rapidly away from the range of the mass repeater and into a barren cosmic space.
When the fleet had been in the void for nearly three days, the reconnaissance planes that were exploring the path ahead sent back information. At a distance of 0.5 light-years from your own fleet, a strange fleet of thousands of ships of various types was discovered.
Laxis leaned elegantly on her own exclusive seat, drinking the wine brought by the maid while watching the reconnaissance video sent back by the reconnaissance plane.
In the huge screen, the figure of the fleet in the distance was clearly displayed. It was a hodgepodge of fleets, because there were almost any type of ships in the fleet, and each one was more or less different.
The computer system immediately listed at least 50 different types of spacecraft based on the observation images displayed by the reconnaissance plane. There are large transport ships, recovery ships, and even mineral gathering ships, warships, and merchant ships.
And such a chaotic fleet combination obviously looks very much like a group of refugees. However, this fleet was different from those temporary groups that fled because of the war, and the fleet composed of these different types of ships was well organized when they were advancing, and they did not see any chaotic scenes at all.
Seeing this scene, Laxis immediately thought of a piece of information that matched the situation in front of her. This fleet, which looks like a patchwork of things, is a fleet of immigrants belonging to the Quarians.
As for the Quarians, an alien race in the Mass Effect, Laxis has read the relevant information. After all, in the Divine Citadel, the introduction to the Quarians is quite detailed.
The Quarians were originally one of the member nations of the Citadel, and their home planet was a planet known as Lenoch. This race has a very advanced side in terms of engineering skills and robotics knowledge.
However, it is also because of their advanced technology that the Quarians have become the famous wandering people in the galaxy today. These guys once created a robot called geth for the sake of war and labor. As is the case in the world of the Terminators, these creations have attacked their creators.
An all-out war between the Quarians and the geth broke out on Lenochi, and the best creators lost to their creations, and billions of Quarians died in the war. The rest escaped aboard a spaceship and became a well-known wandering people in the galaxy.
Because they are survivors of the Great War, the ships in the Quarian immigration fleet are of course varied. After hundreds of years of wandering, the survivors of these lives and spaceships began to search for a suitable planet to colonize, while dreaming of one day reclaiming their home planet.
"Order the reconnaissance plane, continue to observe the movements of the Quarian fleet, and then report at any time." After Laxis gave this order, she continued to look at the impressions on the big screen.
Although the Quarian fleet had thousands of ships of all kinds, Laxis could only do so if she wanted to. She confidently commanded the fleet under her command and inflicted heavy damage on the opposing emigrant fleet. This is because most of the ships in the Quarians' emigrant fleet are non-combat-ready modified ships.
Of course, Laxis will not attack easily, even if the opponent is weak, because she wants to make contact with this Quarian emigrant fleet.
Because of the wandering of the Quali Migration Fleet in the galaxy, they have traveled through many galaxies, and it is likely that they have a lot of information in their hands.
And according to the data, the Quarian migration fleet has its own special technology, and it is still in the process of migration, collecting the technology of other systems.
Laxis wanted to make contact with the Quarian immigrant fleet, and then gain the information and technology in the hands of the other party through trade.
After all, the Quarians who roam the galaxy have a very high demand for resources, so it is easier to obtain the technology they need through peaceful means than to trade with other forces.
Soon after, the reconnaissance planes reported that the Quarians were heading towards an untouched system, about 1 light-year away from their fleet.
Seeing the path of the Quarian emigrant fleet shown on the star map, Laxis immediately decided to make contact with them on the path that the other party must pass.
So Laxis immediately ordered the fleet to start a short-distance space crossover in order to reach the galaxy ahead first, and then wait for the arrival of the Quarian immigration fleet.
The fleet, having received the order, activated the space trailing system a minute later. Subsequently, more than sixty warships with the Precursor dreadnought as the core quickly disappeared into the space channel.
At this time, the Quarian emigrant fleet continued to fly towards the predetermined target area, where they were ready to try their luck and see if they could get all the supplies that the fleet needed.
