Chapter 854: Unstoppable
While only the captain and first mate have the Origin Converter, the rest of the crew in the fleet owns the Primordial Body. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In fact, these crew members, like the officers and soldiers assigned to the expeditionary force, were volunteers recruited by the Yu family from various colonial systems after the outbreak of the war. It's just that because the original level is different, they are arranged in different positions. The highest-ranking volunteers were assigned to the expeditionary force, the best became officers, and the rest were soldiers. The original level was slightly worse to join the Jade family's private forces, some served on the battleship, and some became security personnel. The worst are assigned to the various transport ships, and only when they become captains and first mates can they obtain small Primal Energy Converters. As for those who were not primordials, they were assigned to other trades, mainly to work in factories, or to other civilizations, or to work on ships on rear routes.
Of course, the original level of these crew members is not high, even the fifteen captains are only eighth-level primitives, and the fifteen chief mates are only sixth-level primitives, and ordinary crew members are generally third-level primitives, and only a few have reached the fourth-level and fifth-level. Obviously, even if they were equipped with a small Origin Energy Converter, their combat effectiveness would not be much stronger. On the battlefield, it's good not to be a burden to other soldiers.
Thankfully, it's not a big deal.
It didn't take much effort, Yang Yi and Lin Feng, as well as fifteen captains and fifteen first mates, let the other crew members master the method of controlling and using the small origin energy converter. In fact, these crew members have received basic training, but they have never used a small primordial converter.
Of course, it was not possible to raise the original level of the crew in such a short time.
It's just that there's no need for that.
After letting the crew master the use of the small Origin Converter, Yang Yi gave them some time to practice, and he and Lin Feng went to the cargo hold.
The lead spacecraft is carrying space fighters, and it is the latest batch of space fighters.
Before departure, Yu Linglong told Yang Yi that according to his requirements, this batch of space fighters has adopted the latest standards, that is, they are equipped with independent drive systems. It's just that due to the capacity limitation of small original energy converters, and the small original energy converters above the S level have not yet been mass-produced, they are not equipped with a separate small original energy converter for the time being, and it is necessary to wait until the production capacity of the small original energy converter is increased before modification. Of course, when the time comes, it will only be necessary to install a separate small Origin Energy Converter for these space fighters, and it will be able to be done on the front line, without having to be sent back to the rear. In other respects, there is nothing special about these space fighters.
The point is that these space fighters are equipped with space jumping devices.
Although they are all small space jumping devices, and they are limited by the energy system, the jump distance is very short, no more than a hundred light years at most, but as long as they are equipped with a separate small original energy converter, these space fighters do not have too high requirements for the ability of the pilot, even ordinary people, as long as they master the driving skills, they can fly these space fighters for space jumping, but they cannot fully exert the combat power of the space fighters.
Of course, this is not a problem, because Yang Yi did not let the crew fly a space fighter to fight the enemy.
Although Yang Yi didn't have enough small Origin Energy Converters to arm two hundred legions, it was obviously more than enough to equip one for each of the one hundred and fifty space fighters. Yang Yi and Lin Feng went to the cargo compartment to install a separate small original energy converter for one hundred and fifty space fighters.
Subsequently, Yang Yi arranged tasks for one hundred and fifty crew members.
Very simply, with the spacecraft as a unit, every two crew members are a team, and after the spacecraft arrives at the predetermined location, the space fighter will be piloted to explore the nearby celestial bodies within a hundred light-years to determine the situation of the celestial bodies, mainly whether they have been attacked by the Earth Dragon.
As for the search area of the spacecraft, it is arranged according to the known map of the starry sky.
Of course, these things were arranged by Lin Feng, and Yang Yi was not worried.
Subsequently, Yang Yi and Lin Feng also spent some experience to let those crew members master the piloting skills of space fighters, but they were only basic skills. The point is, the time is too short for the crew to complete the full training. However, there is no need for this, because these space fighters have autopilot equipment, can fly according to a pre-set route, and only need the pilot to operate when there is an accident, so the crew only needs to master the method of driving the space fighter back to the spacecraft after an accident. Although it is not foolproof, it is much better than not knowing what to do then, at least there is a glimmer of hope for survival.
Once they were ready, each of the fifteen ships activated their space jumping devices.
Yang Yi only made arrangements for one day, that is, after one day, no matter what was discovered, the fifteen spaceships had to return, and then go to the next military fortress. To this end, Yang Yi specially instructed the fifteen captains to pay attention to keeping in touch with the space fighters sent out when arranging operations. If there is an accident, an unsolvable trouble, or an enemy, you must report the situation in time.
Of course, Yang Yi and Lin Feng did not participate in the search operation, and both of them stayed.
Nominally, the two were back-ups for fifteen ships.
It's just that Yang Yi and Lin Feng both know very well that if the enemy is still nearby, even if they go all out, they won't be able to support fifteen spaceships at the same time.
Obviously, the key to security is confidentiality.
For this reason, Yang Yi clearly mentioned that no matter what is discovered, communication cannot be carried out. Communications equipment can be used only in the event of an enemy attack. Of course, Yang Yi did not forget to tell those captains that even if they sent a signal for help, they might not be able to get help. It's just that Yang Yi gave the captain limited autonomy, that is, if the spaceship is attacked and the enemy is too strong, the captain can decide whether to return or not. To put it simply, if it is to protect the crew, then the captain can decide to return to the sea. Yang Yi arranged this way, not because he didn't need the crew to go all out, but because he didn't want to expose his whereabouts, because the enemy might not destroy the spaceship, and it was very likely to track the spacecraft.
After the fifteen spaceships left one after another, Yang Yi told Lin Feng about what happened in the Jade family after he left the home galaxy after killing the Wanluo War Emperor, went to the home planet of the Extreme Realm Clan, and later went to the Alliance Star to find Mendozo, went to the home star of the Mason clan, and returned to the home galaxy.
It was only at this time that Lin Feng knew why Yang Yi wanted to go to the Northern Alpha Galaxy.
Of course, Lin Feng didn't blame Yang Yi, because she knew that Yang Yi didn't tell her before because he wanted to protect her and didn't want her to worry about these things. In addition, Lin Feng was also self-aware, because before that, she had endured too much pressure for the tragic experience of the Lin family. If she could have figured it out earlier and walked out of self-blame, Yang Yi would definitely not hide it from her, and would have told her these things a long time ago.
In fact, Lin Feng wanted to go to the fortress that had been invaded by the earth dragon.
It's just that Yang Yi doesn't feel that there is any need for this.
The day passed quickly, and Yang Yi and Lin Feng were also very anxious.
Because there was no communication contact, Yang Yi and Lin Feng didn't know what the fifteen spaceships had discovered and what troubles they had encountered. It's just that the best news has not been received in the past day is that at least it means that none of the ships have returned.
Only, who can be sure?
If the enemy is nearby, and has long mastered the whereabouts of these ships, at least made a judgment in advance, and then launches a surprise attack, then I am afraid that none of the ships will be able to send a message until they are destroyed by the enemy. You know, these are fast ships, not battleships, and there is no combat effectiveness at all. Not to mention the powerful existence of the Phantom Ghost Emperor, even if it is just a silicon ghost battleship, it can destroy these spaceships.
When the first spaceship returned, Yang Yi and Lin Fengcai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In the next half of the disappearance, the other fourteen spacecraft returned, and the space fighters sent out for the reconnaissance mission were all unharmed.
This is also the only good news.
After the warships reported the reconnaissance results, Yang Yi and Lin Feng were in a heavy mood, because Yang Yi's guess was confirmed.
Fifteen spaceships searched the fifteen areas where fifteen large celestial bodies were concentrated in the vicinity within 1,500 light years, and those large celestial bodies marked on the star map had either been invaded by the Earth Dragon, or had disappeared, and even some small celestial bodies were missing. Although the search area is pitifully small compared to the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, there is enough reason to believe that all the large objects in the Greenwich Meteorite Belt are the same. What's more, it must be the Silicon Charm Alliance that destroys these large celestial bodies. To put it bluntly, the Phantom Ghost Emperor is using this method to turn the Greenwich Meteorite Belt into a vacuum, an insurmountable moat.
Perhaps, the Phantom Ghost Emperor is not far from success.
What now?
Yang Yi did not think about this problem, but gathered the fifteen captains together and explained the situation to them.
"Obviously, we can't go back." Yang Yi sighed and said, "Although starting from here, we can return to the military base in the rear, but after arriving there, because the spatial node disappears, we will not be able to make a space jump of more than a thousand light years. In other words, we will be lost in space, and even if we can return to the Southern Alpha system one day in the future, it will be a long time later. All we can do now is move on, head to the Northern Alpha System, and join the Expeditionary Force and the Weaver Legion. I know you may not be able to accept this outcome, but you can only accept it, and you have to do the ideological work for the crew. I can't promise that I'll be able to send you home someday, but I can promise that I'll give you a chance to go home as long as I'm alive. Before we go, we will be in contact with the rear, and for the last time we have reached the Northern Alpha System. If there's anything you want to tell your family, think about it as soon as possible. Next, we will make space jumps in succession and no longer stay. ”
No one asked questions because everyone's mood was heavy.
Ahead, what awaits Yang Yi and them is a fierce army of silicon charms, a battle with a huge disparity in strength, and a result that no one can predict. (To be continued.) )
