Chapter 555: Accident
The Courage began to extract the energy of the entire battleship and fill it into the jump engine the moment the order was given, and for a full five minutes, the entire battleship went into darkness except for the energy needed to maintain the ship's shield. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but soon, the emergency reactor began to exert force, and the lost light was lit again. This energy comes from the fusion reactors scattered throughout the spacecraft, and since the energy they provide is too weak for the Spirit to be used, the jump engines have been dormant for a long time, but they did not expect to work at this time.
"It's dark!" Jing's hand unconsciously pulled Cheng Mingli's arm, and her petite body trembled slightly. Not long ago, Cheng Mingli rushed to the command center of the Spirit with Jing. As one of the commanders of the next ground reconnaissance, Cheng Mingli needs to meet with the commander of the Pioneer Regiment in the command center and clarify the next tasks. But I didn't expect that not long after leaving, the entire high-speed passage suddenly went black, and then even the artificial gravity was lost.
"Fix the rejection belt, now that the spacecraft is weightless, control the rejection belt switch, and slowly approach the fixed end. If you float too high later, if the gravity recovers, you will fall to death," Cheng Mingli reminded Jing while controlling the terminal of the rejection strap hanging on his waist to set it.
This kind of rejection belt is standard for soldiers after boarding the ship, some like the belt equipped with military uniforms in the past, the inside is a circle of very thin and strong carbon nanotube fibers, which can be used to prevent casualties due to collisions by popping the rejection belt around the ship's corridor and the internal fixed rod of the aircraft when the ship's anti-gravity engine is out of control.
The "Dong ......" ship aircraft deviated from its fixed course in the high-speed passage, and even though the emergency engine began to slow down, the aircraft still fiercely mounted the alloy wall at the edge of the passage.
"Ah......h
"I'll go, what are you calling, my bones are about to be broken by you" Cheng Mingli tried to pull away the crystal that was leaning on his body like an octopus, while looking around. There are very few people in the high-speed aircraft, and the crew compartment with a rated capacity of more than 200 people is not more than 10 people. Now that the emergency lights inside the aircraft have been turned on, everyone is scrambling to fix themselves.
…………
In the command center, the green emergency lights illuminate everything in a green forest, a bit like a horror movie. Except for Biluo, who was meticulously controlling the spaceship to make the jump, everyone else became silent. They were praying, praying that this gamble would win out and that they wouldn't end up like the ships out there.
"Damn, it should be Likent, let an army officer command the starship, and it can't be played with the assistance of artificial intelligence" Eugene regretted that he was strong. However, there are only three chief officers in the advance fleet, and after Biluo leaves, Shi Lin and Li Kent still have to be in charge of the outside fleet, and the candidate for this time is either Eugene or Shi Lin has no choice at all.
"That's it!" As soon as Biluo's words fell, the Spirit suddenly began to accelerate, and then the hull of the ship slowly became transparent, passing through the black line in front of it like a ghost, and then disappeared. By the time the Spirit reappeared, the scene in front of him had changed dramatically. The faint semi-four-dimensional space filled with black lines has disappeared, and the light of the stars is transmitted back to the command center through the outboard probe, and finally returns to normal space.
"Radar officer, start measuring the Ambient Space Index. Biluo, compare the star map and see where we are. Contact the chief engineer and restore the energy supply as soon as possible," Eugene breathed a sigh of relief and began to give orders.
"The space index is abnormal, the nearby space is blocked by the Boleves space anchor, and the ship's jump engine can't work......" Eugene's heart had just been put down, and the radar officer's news made Eugene nervous again.
"There are no matching star map coordinates, we are ...... in the unknown range" The bad news came again, and Biluo once again slapped Eugene's heart.
"The spacecraft annihilation reactor ran out of fuel and can only burn stored amethysts for energy at the moment. In other words, in the future, unless the refueling can be completed again, the Spirit can only be used as a seventh-level spaceship, and dimensional navigation and communication are impossible. And the amethyst we have in reserve can only support the battleship for two moderate combat needs" This news could not be worse.
"Oh my God, Lady Luck has abandoned me," Eugene cried in his heart.
"Have you collected the surrounding star maps? Take a look at it" and clean up his mood, and Eugene began to deal with the work in front of him. The most important thing at the moment is to understand the surrounding environment and find out where you are, otherwise you will be lost. Carrying out dimensional jumps in semi-four-dimensional space has never been encountered by the entire Golden Crow Fleet, and no one knows what the consequences of that jump will be, and it is not impossible to accidentally jump to the other side of the universe.
"Buzz...... starts with lighting, and the energy is restored at once. A steady stream of energy poured out of the hedron reactor, activating the anti-gravity force that shut down, and the long-lost artificial gravity finally reappeared. However, at this time, Eugene could no longer care about the feeling of gravity being lost and regained, and his entire gaze was focused on the star map on the holographic projection.
"Is the star map confirmed?" Eugene smacked his lips. Not only Eugene, but the entire command center was not taken lightly by the star Tulei in front of them. I saw that on the shrunken star map, a star cluster composed of more than a dozen river systems was quietly docked in the void. It's fine, the point is that the rivers are so close to each other that it's almost like they're close together. Not only that, but all the disc-shaped river systems do not rotate at all, they are completely stationary, as if a color photograph was captured on a moving star map.
"Confirmed" seems to be to prove himself, Biluo took over the authority of the radar officer, and directly played the starry sky outside to the holographic projection. Spirit is currently located at the outermost extension of a galaxy at the edge of the cluster, allowing it to see the surrounding sky.
"Send out a reconnaissance fleet to scout the surrounding environment to see if there is any intelligent life. If we can find an interstellar civilization, we may be able to understand the situation here," Eugene finally stopped worrying about the strange star map in front of him, and began to work according to the Pioneer Group's set of procedures.
Soon, more than a dozen reconnaissance ships flew away from the Starport of Spirit and headed for the surrounding star system search. Because the space is fixed, the jump engine will not work until the space is undocked. Therefore, reconnaissance ships are flying with warp engines, the range that can be detected is very limited, and the speed of information transmission is also much slower, at least the connection distance of the subspace communicator that transmits information through space fluctuations is reduced by two-thirds, and it is necessary to establish a communication relay station to be able to barely communicate between star systems. As for the hyperspace communicator, it went down.
In order to gather as much information as possible about the surroundings, a large number of disposable Eagle Eye detectors were sprinkled along the way by the reconnaissance ship. These probes will be networked to base stations set at intervals, allowing Spirit to have access to everything within a 10-light-year radius. But it takes at least five to seven days to get this done.
After the departure of the reconnaissance ship, the entire fleet began to mobilize on the orders of Eugene. All soldiers have been canceled from vacation, at least someone must be on duty at every post, and the command center of each warship must even have double or even three posts. Not long after, Spirit began to fly towards the star system ahead. In an unfamiliar interstellar environment, it is definitely safer to rely on a solid planet than to dock alone in space. Of course, it would be nice to be able to hide in the thick atmosphere of the giant planet.
The situation of the surrounding galaxies is not very clear, but the star system in front of me has been scouted. It's a very miniature star system, there should be five planets, and there is a hot Jupiter near the star, which looks red even at the edge of the galaxy, but I don't know if it's raining iron under the dense atmosphere.
However, when scouting for the three rocky planets of the star system, there were no small discoveries. Both planets are all mineral stars, and even the resources in them are very rich, and one has even reached the level of a rich mineral. The rich ore here is not conventional iron-nickel, but the highly prized element TRB-253, with a mineral abundance of 35.7%.
This discovery made Eugene extremely happy, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't contact the Golden Crow formation, just the discovery of such a bonanza would definitely make the entire advance fleet a windfall. The discovery of the Mineral Star caused Eugene to change his decision to drill into the planet's atmosphere and prepare to set up a temporary base. If the progress is fast, the Spirit will be able to replenish its inventory of valuable resources before more news comes back from the Scout.
Soon, though, the information from the scout ship made Eugene not know whether to cry or laugh. The fastest scout ship has arrived in the nearby star system, which is similar to the solar system, and there are no ecological planets, but there are as many as thirteen rocky planets. And what surprised Eugene even more was that all of these planets were mineral stars, and except for two of them, which were conventional metal resources, most of the rest were precious elements.
"How is that possible? Could it be that this is a mining area in the universe? "Eugene had the feeling of being hit on the head by Lady Luck.
But as more scouts came back with information, Eugene finally found something strange. Because all the news that came back confirmed that the star system in which it was located was all mineral stars, and even a reconnaissance ship discovered a special area where jonite was produced. There was a space storm zone there, the space was not large, only the size of a rocky planet, but the crystals in that space loomed like swimming fish.
"That's not right! Such abundant resources, anchored spaces, and river systems that are so close but not moving are not normal at all. We're not delving into the treasure trove of advanced civilizations! (To be continued.) )
