Chapter 346: Eltas Heading for the End

In the empty star system, countless ships slowly moved forward, and in front of them, a bullet-shaped hive mothership had completed the final assembly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The composite external armor with a thickness of several kilometers formed a flat steel continent on the hive mothership, and on the surface of the mothership, twenty huge starports appeared with the movement of the external armor. Countless expedition ships and fleet warships lined up in slender formations, pouring into the mothership's starport like a tide.

A day later, there were only two Rank 6 Willow Leaf fleets and a huge hive mothership standing alone in the starry sky in the entire star system.

"Whew...... The fleet has been staying here for more than five months, and it's time for us to leave" Looking at the starry sky outside through the holographic projection, Chen Peilin took a long breath and said softly.

It was a very difficult five months. Since the main fleet took most of the resource reserves with it when it left, not even many energy crystals were left. Fortunately, Chen Peilin usually developed the habit of keeping some precious resources with him, plus there were still a lot of reserves inside the Starry Sky, and the unremitting efforts of everyone in the entire second formation in the past five months had finally gathered enough resources for the fleet.

Otherwise, the second formation of just a Kwafu hive mothership would not be able to be built, let alone an even larger number of Xingtian III mechas. The latest mecha is a large number of space technology, completely seventh-level civilization creations, and the captain of the machine has even expanded the folding space inside, and there are not a few precious resources such as the spar stone that are used.

"In terms of resources, we don't need to worry about it in a short period of time, whether it's a dense limit star, an energy spar or other conventional metal materials, we have prepared a lot during this time. Relative to the population of the second formation, our reserves of resources have far exceeded the limits of what can be used.

In the past, the reason why resources were depleted quickly was because the population base of the entire fleet was too large, but now it seems that there are still many benefits to a smaller population base," Natalie smiled and said beside Chen Peilin.

"That can't be said of the words, in the interstellar age, resources and population are stronger than anything else. A strong population base means a steady stream of soldiers and a constant burst of talented scientists. Without such a large population base, a lot of work simply cannot be carried out.

Just like now, we don't have the confidence to fight a hard-to-head conventional war with a seventh-level civilization at all. Otherwise, the population of the entire fleet will be depleted in one battle. If the Golden Crow Fleet is still there, even if we lose tens of billions of soldiers, we won't break our bones," Chen Peilin began to retort.

"Humph! Most of the losses are soldiers of vassal clans and other races, of course you won't feel distressed" Natalie's expression I have long seen your true face, wrinkled her cute nose and taunted Chen Peilin, and the angry Chen Peilin slapped Natalie's upright place lightly.

In fact, Natalie has worked much harder than Chen Peilin recently, and Natalie is responsible for planning and executing many things, and this girl is also tired during this time, and Chen Peilin also hopes to relax each other through a little play between husband and wife.

"When will the advance party leave? I think we should give them more support. Isn't the previous Tier 6 plant battleship already decommissioned? We'll just give them the seeds of the plant battleship. At that time, they will be able to produce a steady stream of plant warships.

Then prepare a few industrial ships for them, so that they have the ability to produce mecha weapons, and when the time comes, they can only stare dryly...... "Natalie said as she checked Chen Peilin's face, and found that Chen Peilin looked at her incorrectly, so she stopped.

"Smack! …… Honestly, which bastard made you say that? I wonder why your girlfriends have suddenly increased recently, and it turns out that there are other people's spies around you. ”

"But what people say is right, with that little bit of strength, there is really no way to cross such a long distance" Natalie's face was full of grievances.

"No, that's enough. Their army landing force is only about 200,000 people, and the number of Xingtian-3 mechs I have equipped them with has reached 500,000. SSS-grade energy crystals have been prepared for them in millions of units, almost one-fiftieth of our total production in the last five months.

And the biocrystals I gave them can produce all the power crystals below SS level. There are also a full set of war factories in the two half-dimensional warships that can help them refine resources and produce all weapons and equipment, including the Xingtian One.

They were just on an exploration mission, and there were no Tier 7 warships in the fleet, so what were they doing with energy trees and a full set of technology production lines? It's not that I don't trust them, but I have to be on guard.

You know, they're too weak, and if their mission isn't completed, and something happens, such as being captured by aliens, our tech tree will be completely exposed.

Advanced science and technology are the foundation of our survival in this universe, and we must firmly grasp it in our own hands at all times, and we must not miss the slightest omission. Their mission is just an attempt by me, and if it doesn't work, we'll send a group of exploration teams over after we join up with the main formation. In my assessment, these powers are completely enough for them to use," Chen Peilin said with a frown.

"Actually, we can send an AI to go with them," Natalie thought for a moment and gave a new suggestion.

"It's already being done, Bixiao has created a new artificial intelligence with itself as the matrix, and it should have succeeded now. Later, you will take a look for yourself" Artificial intelligence has always been a powerful tool for Chen Peilin to manage the entire formation, and Chen Peilin can never forget it. And if a long interstellar trip, especially one with so few people, does not have the help of artificial intelligence, the crew will even have a nervous breakdown.

"Di Di Di ......" The personal terminal vibrated gently, and Bixiao's figure appeared beside Chen Peilin, and he reported softly: "News from the cowboy squad, the Eltas have undergone large-scale mutations, and the entire civilization tends to collapse. Zhou Bocai asked us if we would provide assistance to the Eltas people."

"Eltas? Is there such a civilization in the second formation? How did I not know? ”

"The Eltas are the humanoid civilization that settled in the Tranquility Valley Star Cluster, and we found the Canubis Star Fort of the Dozeya Zerg in the Tranquility Valley, and then found the small universe through the traces of Canubis" Seeing that Chen Peilin forgot about the Eltas people, Bi Xiao reminded on the side.

"Oh, what happened to them?" Chen Peilin asked casually. Chen Peilin is not very keen on such things. The Golden Crow fleet did not have a deep friendship with the Eltas, and Chen Peilin was not willing to take care of the trivial affairs of an unrelated and unfamiliar civilization in such a situation. It is important to know that this place is not very far from the original battlefield, and if the enemy sends warships over again, it will be easy to spot the traces of the fleet.

"The Eltas extracted genetic elixirs from the hatchlings of Silas to promote physical evolution. As a result, the genes of Celthas have exploded in the society of the Eltas, and many Eltas have become monsters that are not human or ghost, and even powerful evolved individuals have begun to transform in the direction of the Zerg," Bi Xiao said as she played back the images collected by the cowboy squad through a holographic projection.

I saw that on a strange planet, countless insects and monsters rushed towards a lonely city like ocean waves. Neither electromagnetic weapons nor energy weapons are very lethal to them. On the other hand, many bugs have even evolved wings that allow them to fly directly from the ground into space to fight the Eltas space fleet.

"Humph! This is self-inflicted iniquity, and it cannot live. The phagocytosis of the Zerg gene has not even had the slightest way for our Life Science Institute to date, and they actually used the Zerg gene evolution liquid so recklessly, it is simply that if they don't die, they won't die.

I think this Eltas civilization is over, once the Zerg gene spreads on a large scale, the entire civilization will be infected. At that time, either all intelligent life will become Zerg, or it will evolve to the end, and all the Zerg gene chains will collapse and turn into a puddle of thick pulp," Chen Peilin said disdainfully.

"Let's go and save them, aren't we short of vassals now? The number of people in this Eltas civilization is quite large, not to mention more than ten trillions. If we subdue the Eltas, we'll have a steady stream of soldiers," Natalie began to overflow with love again.

"You know, we're powerless. The perverted devouring ability of the Zerg gene, even we are not immune. If Pan Jia is here, it's okay, the queen worm is almost successful in hatching now, maybe she will have some way. But although our technology is advanced now, it is completely impossible to completely suppress the explosion of this phagocytosis gene in a short period of time," Chen Peilin said with a headache.

"Judging from the information given by the cowboy team, there are many remote and backward planets on the edge of the Valley of Tranquility, and the Eltas people on these planets are unable to use the Genetic Evolution Liquid due to poverty, so no infection has occurred so far.

Zhou Bocai: What they mean is, should we send a fleet to help transfer a small number of Eltas to other places, and save some civilization for the Eltas people" Bi Xiao told Zhou Bocai their suggestion. Obviously, Zhou Bocai and the others also realized that with the current situation of the second formation, it was unrealistic to completely rescue the Eltas people, so they proposed this compromise plan.

In fact, the Cowboy Squad had no impression of the Eltas civilization at all, and only temporarily planned to rescue Malcolm and them because they suddenly received Malcolm Reynolds' call for help a few days ago. The original intention of the cowboy team was just to rescue Malcolm's sanctuary planet, which had nothing to do with the Eltas civilization, but Chen Peilin and they complicated this issue.

If it weren't for the fact that the entire second formation was now completely under military control and the warships were not allowed to leave the port without authorization, the rescue operation would have been completed by the Star Cowboy itself.

"If you only save the population of one planet, it would work. With the space inside the hive mothership, let alone the intelligent life of a planet, even if it is a person from the planet of Ten Harmony, we can fit it. The order goes down, the second formation goes to the Valley of Tranquility, and we go to be the savior" (To be continued.) )
