When the patrol ship turned into orbit around Akarius, the alarm went off and the patrol ship's route map was displayed.

"Aaron?"

"Major, the enemy ship is moving towards the low-orbit area of the Acarius star, and the detection information has been intercepted, and it is inferred that the enemy ship is equipped with space detection equipment."

Yang Yi's brows tightened, and Shen Chengwen and Otis's faces also became gloomy.

"Aaron, how much time do we have?"

"For the time being, it is impossible to determine what kind of space detection equipment the enemy ship is using, so it is impossible to make an accurate judgment."

"Probably?"

"If we don't do anything, it's five minutes at the shortest, fifteen minutes at the most."

"Remind us in five minutes."

"Major ......"

"Get ready for a space jump and wait for my orders."

"Understood."

Sighing secretly, Yang Yi looked at Shen Chengwen and Otis.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence." Otis muttered.

"It's possible." Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "The Silicon Charm army has been blockading the homeland star for months, and each war zone has sent warships to break through. Although it has never been successful, it is clear that as long as the guys in the Silicon Alliance are not too stupid, they will step up their vigilance deployment, at least put more detection equipment in their home system. In other words, we were spotted when we arrived at Acalius, and the patrol ship arrived after receiving the signal from the probe. While enemies on patrol ships will find the detector first, and if no anomalies are found, they may think that the detector is applauding, or that natural interference has triggered the detector, as long as the enemy on the patrol ship is a little more cautious, they will search carefully before leaving. ”

"It's possible to find us." Shen Chengwen said the next words.

"It's possible, but it's not the most critical thing. With the performance of the 'Star Ocean'. As long as you make full use of the natural interference generated by Acarius and stay in low orbit as much as possible, the probability of being detected is not very large. Yang Yi let out a long sigh and said, "The question is, is this just a coincidence?" Or rather. Did we really trigger the sensors hiding around here and bring in the patrol ship? ”

Shen Cheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then frowned.

Otis was also stunned. "You're saying that our whereabouts have long been exposed?"

Yang Yi nodded and said, "Although the dispatches are all small warships in the Third War Zone, the use of more than a hundred small warships will definitely not be able to keep it secret, and the news has already spread." Perhaps, when we set off, no one thought of us yet. However, a few days later, and we have not shown up, the 'Xinghai' has also left the spaceport of the Third Theater Command, and it is not difficult to think of us. If anyone wants to deal with us and prevent us from going to meet the Star Soul Empress, they will let the news out. Obviously, there must be the eyeliner of the Silicon Charm Alliance in the home galaxy. We don't know our routes, but the Alliance could take a simpler approach. That is, to intercept all small ships. If that's the case, there must be the main fleet of the Silicon Charm Alliance around here. ”

"That's the case. We need to get out of here. Otis said.

Yang Yi shook his head slightly, but didn't say anything.

Otis looked at Yang Yi incomprehensibly, since he was worried that there was the enemy's main fleet nearby, wouldn't staying just sit and wait? No matter how powerful the "Star Sea" is, it is only a small warship, and it is definitely not an opponent of the SSS-class capital ships, let alone encountering a main fleet.

"It's not the time yet."

Heard Shen Cheng say this. Otis looked at him.

"If Brother Yang's guess is correct, then the patrol ship that appears now is here to startle the snake, that is, a bait. As expected, the enemy's main fleet was definitely nearby, even if not very close. It won't be too far away, and it will definitely be able to arrive in time. In addition, if our whereabouts are exposed, then the enemy can prevent us from escaping by destroying the star of Acarus. This is a giant planet, and when it collapses, it will definitely cause space disorder, and even the 'Star Sea' will not be able to make a space jump at this time. When the enemy's main fleet arrives, even if they can escape, they can only return to their home system, and they will definitely not be able to leave their home system. ”

Otis frowned, and did not refute what Shen Chengwen said.

In fact, in the past few months, Shen Chengwen had spent a lot of time learning about the battleship in addition to training with female warriors such as Otis. Although it is not possible to say that he has a complete grasp of it, Shen Chengwen can be said to know the performance of the "Xinghai" well, and knows what he can and cannot do.

"We can't reveal our whereabouts unless we have to." Yang Yi opened his mouth at this time and said, "Lao Shen is right, that patrol ship is not to be feared, the key is the enemy's main fleet." If we are caught up by the enemy and blocked, we will have to return to our home system. ”

"The question is, if that patrol ship doesn't leave, we're going to keep waiting?"

Glancing at Otis, Yang Yi said with a smile: "If Lao Shen's judgment is right, that patrol ship won't stay near Acarius for too long. ”

"Why?"

"The home galaxy is so large, and the circumference of the edge area is tens of billions of kilometers, even if the Silicon Charm Alliance dispatches all the patrol ships in its hands, it cannot guarantee to monitor all the areas. What's more, since it is a scareless snake, you have to behave more normally and not overdo it. If that patrol ship had stayed near Acarius, we would have to hide here all the time, and how would the enemy catch something? Shen Chengwen shook his head with a smile and said, "Of course, in order to drive us out, that patrol ship will search the low-orbit area of Acarius like a daily patrol, but it won't stay long, and it will leave after completing the search." ”

Otis looked at Shen Chengwen suspiciously, probably not understanding what Shen Chengwen meant.

Of course, it's also about language. Although Otis will be the lingua franca of the alliance, Shen Chengwen's lingua franca of the alliance is not very standard.

"We'll see." Yang Yi ended the topic.

Now, too, they can only wait.

Under Aaron's control, the "Star Sea" maintained the same speed and orbital altitude as the patrol ship, but did not hide on the other side of Acarius, but kept a sufficient distance from the patrol ship. Although there are probes on board the Star Ocean that can monitor the other side of the planet by deploying probes in orbit, the probes will send signals and may be spotted by patrol ships.

Time passed minute by minute, and Yang Yi and others were living like years.

It's just that the wait has finally come to fruition, and it's not too bad.

After flying around Acarius three times, the patrol ship began to accelerate and then left its orbit.

After another while, the patrol ship disappeared from the sight of Yang Yi and the others.

"Major, the enemy ship is already far away and has left the detection area." Aaron paused slightly, and then said, "It's already the agreed departure time, do you want to make a space jump?" ”

Yang Yi frowned, thinking about something, as if he hadn't heard Aaron's words.

"Brother Yang?" Shen Chengwen reminded Yang Yi.

"Wait." Yang Yi let out a long breath and said to Shen Chengwen, "Before, we ignored a problem. ”

"What's the problem?"

"Although the Silicon Phantom Alliance doesn't know that we are riding on the Weaver Clan's Shadow Ship, after we return to our home system, someone will definitely know that this is the Shadow Ship." Yang Yi glanced at Shen Chengwen and said, "If someone deliberately leaks the news, they will leak the existence of the Shadow Ship." ”

"You're saying that the enemy knows about the Shadow Ship?"

Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "In this way, it will definitely not be just a patrol ship that came to search for us." ”

"This ......"

"Don't forget, in the plan of action drawn up by the Chief of Staff, small warships were not sent to Akarius. Although this is also reasonable, after all, the interference generated by Acarius makes it necessary for small warships to spend more time to obtain spatial parameters, which also prolongs the preparation time before jumping, which is equivalent to increasing the probability of exposure. Exactly so, before that, there had never been a small battleship breaking through from this side. ”

Shen Chengwen nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Yang Yi meant.

"The problem is that for the Shadow Ship, the interference of Acarus is not serious, it is not a big problem, and it will not have the slightest effect on the space jump. If the enemy knew that we were on a Shadow Ship, they would naturally think of this, and they would also focus on Acarius. ”

"If that's the case, it's not just a patrol ship that has been sent."

"Perhaps, the enemy's main fleet has arrived, just off the planet Acarius."

Shen Chengwen's brows jumped a few times, and his face became very ugly.

Yang Yi didn't say anything more, he had already made it clear.

Although she didn't figure it out, but noticing Yang Yi and Shen Chengwen's expressions, Otis knew that the problem was very serious, so she didn't talk much.

Soon, the alarm sounded.

"Major?"

"Something's been discovered."

"Another patrol ship has appeared, not one, but four, which are flying in this direction, and are expected to arrive in fifteen minutes."

"Only patrol ships?"

"Unknown original energy fluctuations were also detected, but the distance was too far to do quantitative analysis, and it was impossible to judge what type of enemy ship it was."

Yang Yi nodded slightly and looked at Otis.

"You decide, you're the commander, I'm ......"

"We'll have to lower the altitude a bit, can the Star Sea withstand it?"

"It should be fine." Otis then realized that Yang Yi was not asking her to make a decision, but just wanted to know if the 'Star Sea' could withstand the pressure caused by entering the atmosphere of Acarius.

You must know that Acarius is a giant planet, composed of liquid hydrogen, although the temperature is extremely low, even the side facing the star is below minus 100 degrees Celsius, but its atmosphere is thousands of kilometers thick, and the surface pressure is equivalent to 100,000 times the sea level atmosphere of Yanhuang Star.

Fortunately, the "Star Sea" is a Shadow Ship that can cope with all kinds of extreme environments. (To be continued.) )
