The chase continued, the 507 Guards left the channel far away, detouring in the vast wilderness, these places have never been visited, no warship dared to jump rashly in these positions, therefore, the reinforcements of the New Kane Clan Alliance have never been able to catch the 507 Guards, but the 507 Guards can not get rid of their opponents either, they will always run out of fuel one day, and the pursuers behind them probably think the same.

Day 8 of the chase –

"Zodiac Jump?!"

A plan was placed in front of General Pross, and the first paragraph on it surprised him.

"Please read it."

Chu Ming nodded, but his eyes looked at a white dwarf star in the distance, under the dim starlight, the huge fleet seemed to be stationary, and the flashes from time to time were wreckers clearing meteorites blocking the channel.

General Pross calmed down, slowly read page by page, and after a while, he raised his head

"It turned out to be a quasi-jump, using the power of the zodiacal star stream to make a short jump. That's a good idea, but isn't our destination known to the people of the New Kane League? Do you really think there's a bug wave there?! ”

"I'm not 100 percent sure." Chief of Staff Cenarius explained: "But this is the most certain of all plans. Moreover, Chu Ming had a guess. I didn't write about this in the plan, because I personally think it's ridiculous. ”

"Really? What speculation? General Pross closed the plan, and his interest came. He really wanted to know what unexpected ideas Chu Ming had.

"That's right," Miss Philier replied in place of Chu Ming, because she felt that it was easier for General Pros to understand by explaining it: "Chu Ming speculates that butterfly insects will evolve in the near future, butterfly insects are basically the same species in the early stage, and then when they completely overwhelmed humans, the first evolution appeared, and the white-ringed butterfly insect appeared. Chu Ming speculated that the evolution of butterfly insects was not the only one, and that the victory of humans during this time promoted their evolution, relying on devouring humans and their own kind to evolve. In order to adapt and survive, they must evolve. ”

"Is there any basis?" General Pross asked. He asked Chu Ming.

Chu Ming nodded: "Yes, but not much." Yesterday's analysis by the Ministry of Intelligence came out, and that 'silkworm' is actually a kind of butterfly insect. A butterfly insect that can mimic instantaneously, which also explains why the insect tide is so close to us that we only find them. So, the people in the intelligence department named it 'Crypto-worm'. Since butterfly insects have such a perfect species system, it is impossible for them to be wiped out by humans so easily, this is my speculation. ”

General Pross also nodded: "Yes, I also read the report of the Ministry of Intelligence, and the stealth skills are exceptionally perfect." Mimicry is also vivid. Presumably, the New Kane Clan League used this bug to hide their military strength. But why do you think they will evolve in the near future? ”

"Feeling." Chu Ming didn't lie, he did rely on feelings, and it was a very strong premonition.

"So it's another gamble, huh?" General Pross smiled.

"Yes, bet or not?"

"Bet! Of course bet!! Haha I don't know why he smiled so happily......

Zodiacal Stream – This is an astronomical phenomenon discovered by early humans during interstellar travel. In the ecliptic of the Frost Blue galaxy, there are many of these distorted gravitational flows. It is made up of geomagnetic particles ejected by many planets. In the early Age of Discovery, there were many brave sailors who took advantage of the zodiacal star stream to make short jumps, as if they were hitchhiking. But the risks of this kind of hitchhiking are extremely high, and after the technique of jumping has matured, the zodiacal star stream has become a purely astronomical term, and no one uses the ecliptic jump as a way to sail anymore.

When the 507th Guards approached the Zodiacal Stream. The pursuers behind him disappeared. They didn't need to take any risks, they just needed to figure out each jump point of the 507 Guards, and an ambush at the jump point would completely eliminate the unit. If they are lucky enough to have no action, the zodiac spoiler is not a good person.

Chu Ming did not return to the station of the 12th Mecha Brigade, he stayed in the control room of the "Titan"-class flagship. Because in this plan, he is needed to guide the jump. When Chu Ming made this request, General Pros and his two staff officers were taken aback, they didn't know why Chu Ming wanted to do this? Do you have what it takes to do that? If it weren't for the fact that the Xi Sect wouldn't lie, General Pross would have directly vetoed Chu Ming's idea.

"Keep it at a constant speed. Class jumps can be bumpy. ”

In the control room, operating the battleship was Lieutenant Commander Nidp, the captain of the twin S-class. He is a veteran captain. When he was young, he liked to explore, but he was very opposed to this plan, he knew the danger of the zodiac jump, and he didn't know how many good sailors had been buried there, and even the best captain in the world could not guarantee that the zodiac jump would not be risky. And the result of the risk is generally total annihilation, and the power of the universe is not something that human beings can compete with.

"The second jump point has been calculated."

The first mate handed Lieutenant Colonel Nidepp a key and after the key was inserted, the data of the second jump point was stacked on the star map, and the powerful central brain was rapidly generating a route map.

"How sure are you?"

General Pross asked, and he stood upright, not moving a single point even when he jumped and bumped.

Lieutenant Colonel Nidepp shook his head: "I don't know the way, the zodiac jump is either nothing, and the slightest flaw will lead to the worst result." ”

"Is there any way to avoid it?" General Pross asked, he knew that Lieutenant Colonel Dawn Depp was once an interstellar adventurer, and he knew a lot of knowledge that was very unpopular.

"No," Lieutenant Colonel Nidepp said flatly, but looking into General Pross's questioning eyes, he hesitated and added, "Actually, there is a way, but it is just a legend." When the ecliptic transition encounters the ecliptic turbulence, the reverse curvature rest method can be used to reverse the curvature in the transition channel. However, there is no such technique until now. ”

"To be specific, I'd like to hear it." General Pross is a receptive man, and he wants to know what to do when the road is at its worst.

"That's right—" Lieutenant Colonel Nidp left the console, he walked to the battleship terminal dock, pointed to something on it, and said, "Our warp jump engine can do this, and the flip motion will create a reverse curvature. To be clear, this is not the same as maneuvering at a space break in the fairway, which is a high-gravity artificial wormhole. The ecliptic transition, on the other hand, is a standard curved transition, which is different from an ordinary straight line transition. So, we don't just need to accelerate, we need to bend. Theoretically, reverse bending can counteract the ability of a curve to make a jump, and it is possible to interrupt a jump, but this is only a theory. ”

"You mean Leap Strong Detachment?!" General Pross understood. No matter what kind of jump cannot be terminated, the jump strong detachment is actually synonymous with the disintegration of the battleship.

Lieutenant Colonel Nidepp shook his head: "Of course not, otherwise I wouldn't have said it." The class jumps we use, when we jump, it's honeycomb warping, that's why it's so bumpy. Those cellular spots are our only chance, but, in such a high-speed maneuver, our brains can't calculate a correct route at all, no matter how powerful our brains can't, so I say it's something that can only be done by luck. And—"

Lieutenant Colonel Nidepp didn't say any more, he felt that was enough. If it really comes to the point where they need to do reverse curvature stationary, their lives will come to an end. That kind of one-in-a-million chance is not something they can encounter. He glanced at Chu Ming, and he knew that this plan was proposed by Chu Ming, and Chu Ming also asked to take over the command at some point. In Lieutenant Colonel Nidep's eyes, this is the nonsense of an arrogant madman, who is simply joking with the lives of nearly 200,000 people here.

"Thank you." Chu Ming, who had been silent, said something unexpectedly, and after speaking, he seemed to fall into deep thought......

"The whole fleet is connected, and the timing is synchronized."

Lieutenant Commander Nidp skillfully commanded the battleships, and now, all the warships of the entire 507 Guards Army are in his hands, and the interference authority has concentrated the main command of all the warships on the "Titan"-class flagship, and all the battleships are gathered together, connected by wireless and wired methods. The gaseous relay satellites floated densely between the warships, and the entangled optical cables were like the tentacles of jellyfish in the deep sea.

"Activate interference permissions, star map synchronization."

The route is transmitted from fleet to fleet, the glitter of the battleship's engines is blue, and the energy required for the warp is climbing.

"Start the jump engine, the main reactor energy is introduced in the second echelon, 3, 2, 1, and the first echelon. One minute timer, the last jump check. ”

In the control room of the "Titan"-class flagship, countless data are tumbling on the screen, and people in various positions are busy, doing the last check of the jump.

Lieutenant Colonel Nidp looked at his watch, then turned to General Pross: "It's all right, General. At the end of the day, I still want to ask, are we really going to make a zodiac jump? ”

"Of course, let's get started." General Pross nodded firmly, he had to take this risk, and delaying could only lead the 507 Guards to a dead end.

"Yes, General." Lieutenant Commander Nidp didn't ask any more questions, he turned to the main console, put on the captain's helmet, and his avatar appeared on the screens of all battleships: "Attention all captains, open timekeeping, zodiac jump, timekeeping, 10, 9, 8, 7......"

The roar came out, at first like a hissing steam leaking, then like a train passing by, and at the end, the sound of a jumping engine sounded, a huge clatter like a hammer striking a coin, piercing the eardrums. The sound grew louder and more urgent, and at the end of the day, like a rain of rain and hail, the battleship also shook in this sound, accompanied by the screams of countless buzzers and flashing warning lights. The zodiacal leap began.

Everyone grabbed the things around them, and Chu Ming tied himself to a metal high chair, his eyes flashing with a deep gaze. This is his plan, he doesn't want to joke with his own lives and the lives of so many people, so he has to face all the risks involved.
