Chapter 738: Stellar Chessboard

Only a few lucky ones were not melted down with the chamber, although the safe compartment was covered in molten metal.

"Report the damage!" Li Mingze lifted the hatch cover of the dormant compartment in front of him, stood on the floor, and commanded the ship's intelligence.

After losing contact with Tianyi, now Li Mingze can only activate the spare shipborne intelligence to assist him in controlling the battleship.

"Losses are being counted....."

"The Fortress Dimension Armor has been detached, the first layer of letter crystal armor melted down, and the second layer of letter crystal armor melted down! The damage to the lowest level of ordinary armor is 37.61%. ”

"There were 3,241 damaged cabins on the outer layer, 326 damaged cabins, and 1,291 crew members were killed."

"The fortress cannon lost 31 percent, two of the ten secondary guns were damaged, all three main guns were damaged, and there was no damage to the antimaterial storage tank." The shipboard intelligence quickly sent the damage to Li Mingze.

Li Mingze was slightly relieved to see these data, as long as the main structure of the fortress was not damaged, it could still be rebuilt.

Fortunately, the storage bin for storing antimatter is located in the center of the Fortress, and it is not threatened by this stellar explosion, otherwise once the antimatter storage bin explodes, the entire Fortress will be wiped out along with the star.

Not only that, but the antimatter carried by the fortress is enough to destroy this star more than ten times, and the encounter between so much antimatter and the debris produced by the explosion of the star will definitely amplify the power of the explosion dozens of times, and the surrounding star systems may be destroyed.

And the various rays released by this explosion are lethal to life planets for hundreds of light-years.

"All the crew members of the Fortress have left their dormancy and are now on their way to their respective posts."

"The maintenance robots are working with the molecular robots to rebuild the fortress's information collectors and various scanners, and we will soon be able to reconnect with the outside world." Li Mingze walked to his command seat, and the shipboard intelligence reported the latest developments in his ear.

At this time, the inside of the fortress was revitalized, and the staff who had awakened from their dormancy put on power armor and picked up their tools and rushed to the outside of the fortress.

Due to the fact that most of the gravitational simulators in the battleship are still offline, the gravity in the entire spacecraft is extremely weak, and the crew can jump dozens of meters with just a slight jump.

However, this also greatly facilitated the crew's travel, so the artificial gravity system was placed at the end of the maintenance list.

The crew members quickly jumped forward on the ground with their maintenance guns, and after passing through the layers of armor melted by the energy released by the stellar explosion, the first crew member made their way into space outside the battleship.

"This !!" The crew of the Fortress, who had just left the Fortress, was speechless in shock by the sight outside.

The space outside the fortress is not the once dark starry sky, nor is it the stellar wreckage that litters the sky.

Underneath the Bastion is a circular metal platform measuring tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, and at one end of the metal platform there is a straight path leading into the darkness in the distance.

The shimmering silver road alone was light-years long, and the crew couldn't see the end of the road anymore.

The width of this metal road is thousands of kilometers! The Bastion has a diameter of 80 kilometers on this road, like an Alto parked on a two-way, five-lane road.

In the starry sky above this platform, there are white points of light arranged in a stable grid shape, and these points of light are like chess pieces on a chessboard, and the distance between each light point is exactly equal.

And there are thin white threads connecting these white "stars", and every ten minutes, these stars will twinkle from near to far. It is estimated that the distance between these stars is too far apart, and it takes time for light to propagate.

"What kind of place is this!" The crew scrambled past the crew members who had just passed through the hole to him, and rushed towards the interior of the fortress.

At the same time, what he observed through his eyes had been shared by him through the spiritual network into the fortress's internal spiritual network.

Li Mingze, who was talking to the ship's intelligence in the command center of the fortress, suddenly noticed this video in the spiritual network.

After he opened this video, he stood up directly!

"Fortress, how are the scanning equipment and information collection equipment on the outside of the spaceship repaired?" Li Mingze shouted at the ship's shipboard intelligence.

"Your Majesty has completed the repair, and I am collecting external data for aggregation." After the intelligence of the fortress finished speaking, the scene outside the spaceship was transmitted to Li Mingze's mind from a third-person perspective.

"Take the nearest of these twinkling stars and zoom in on them!" Li Mingze commanded through the spirit linker.

Immediately, the image in his mind began to move forward at a rapid pace, and soon stopped in front of the nearest star to the fortress.

As you can see from the picture, this star is a normal white star.

But at this time, Li Mingze's face was full of shock, and what shocked him was not this star, but something outside this star.

In the outer orbit of this star, there are seven hundred and twenty huge metal rings, which are rotating around the planet in a regular manner.

On average, every 10 days is a rotation cycle, which is why the maintenance man can detect the stars twinkling every 10 minutes!

Among these metal rings of different diameters, there are even a large number of planets!

On average, the inside of each ring is inlaid with an equal amount of twelve planets of the same size, which are encased in a blue shield.

In other words, each white star represents a galaxy, and each of these star systems holds as many as 8,640 planets!

Each star and the 8,640 planets around it form a system of its own, and at the two midpoints where each star ring intersects, that is, at the poles of the star, there are six white beams of light that extend to the surrounding stars.

These beams, though angled, are magnified to almost a straight line between the two star systems, which is why they look like a chessboard.

After Li Mingze adjusted his perspective back to the Fortress, he was able to see the layers of white stars in the sky!

Around the platform where his spacecraft docked, there were at least tens of trillions of stars twinkling.

This means that there are tens of trillions of artificial star systems in this starry sky alone, which is still the data obtained after some stars are too far away and their light has been obscured by other stars!
