Chapter 8: Oolong

By the time Yan Shiyi commanded the fleet to embark on the journey again, nearly a third of the planet that the Tinder had originally landed on had been swallowed up, and it looked like a giant beast had bitten off from space. The planet's massive craters are filled with discarded and useless minerals.

Although there is no change on the surface of the gas planet, the hydrogen sea has been lowered by nearly a kilometer, although this has no substantial impact on this huge gas planet, but due to the activities of Yan Shiyi and others, it has directly caused the planet to compensate for the material loss of the hydrogen sea, and its core has also increased its temperature and expanded outward.

These were not the issues that Yan Shiyi and the others were concerned about, what he was most concerned about now was how to quickly rendezvous with the legion and reach the Mine Star Territory marked by Qin Feng.

However, the speed of the Ghost Mechanical Legion is not very fast now, but it is about the same as the speed of the Tinder, which is still achieved by relying on the characteristics of the Ghost Battleship and frequently performing short jumps.

The star map is useless for a long time, and now he doesn't even know where he is. Yan Shiyi was slightly dazed.

The Tinder is controlled by Yan Thirty-four, serving as the flagship of Yan Eleven's ghost fleet. Yan Twelve stood quietly beside Yan Eleven, this was the only member who did not directly control the fleet, because he was closest to the original Yan Eleven, and Yan Eleven left it as a deputy who could be discussed at any time.

Now the two of them are standing quietly in the control cabin of the Tinder, this is one of the few ghost warships with a wide control cabin, the other ghost warships only have a small control cabin, and the remaining internal space is all converted into warehouses, filled with crystalline hydrogen and various crystals and minerals excavated from the planet, mainly various metals. When leaving, Yan Shiyi had the intention of bringing as much as he could, and he also wanted to get more resources for the legion.

"There is no star map to go to the Mine Star Territory, what are we going to do?" Yan Shiyi's voice sounded directly in Yan Twelve's head.

"I haven't come up with a good solution for this, but judging from the previous star charts, we are currently on the edge of Sector VII, and the only way to get a star map to the mining planet is to go to a place inhabited by humans." Yan Twelve's suggestion obviously made Yan Eleven a little moved.

"Isn't that why we're going back?"

"It's okay to go back, if we keep going like this, maybe the gap with the mine will get even bigger. And, perhaps, we can also use the stargate teleportation in human territory to travel quickly. ”

"Then we don't know which territory to go to?"

"I remember that when I was leaving, the legion captured the lord of a territory, what is it called the territory of Bosidia, should we go to that territory and have a look?"

Yan Shiyi felt that this was a good idea, the current state of the fleet could not directly sail to the territory where the mining star was located, so going to the territory of Bosidia might be a better way.

The most important thing is that Yan Shiyi wants to find his current position as soon as possible, otherwise he can't locate it at all, and he regrets in his heart that he was desperate for his crazy voyage.

Yan 11 did not have a fleet to do

Even though more than 300 people have been copied, no one has this kind of awareness, causing the ghost fleet to truly move towards the edge of Sector VII like a giant ghost.

The fleet did not adopt the usual sailing or combat formation, in order to facilitate Yan Shiyi and the others to control the battleship, the fleet was divided into more than three hundred strands in turn, entangled and twisted in an unprecedented rope shape towards the direction of the territory of Bohidia, like a dense wasp, setting off bursts of agitation wherever it passed.

The war in the Persian Empire has not yet subsided, and Narik's fleet has been divided into small groups and is heading towards the wild areas on the edge of Sector VII, occupying the previously uninhabited areas and bringing them all under the rule of the Persian Empire, whether occupied by people or unoccupied.

Powerful fleets carrying countless mech-equipped soldiers wreak havoc in the region, and Narik's Persian Empire has grown to cover an area of five thousand light-years in length and width, occupying almost the vast majority of the planet-rich portion at the end of the cantilever.

And in addition to clearing the forces of the places he passed, he set up communication relays along the way, and set up hidden stargates at key nodes to facilitate the dispatch of the fleet.

The forces within all the empire's territories have been unified, new warships are still being built, and the original forces of all the territories that are now destroyed have been integrated, and the number of warships in the fleet of Narik's Boxi Empire has exceeded 50,000.

With the continuous expansion of the territory of the Boxi Empire, the number of places that need to be defended is also increasing, and he still feels very difficult, and because there are too many places that need to be defended, he can only use a large number of miniature detectors produced by the small Daqin technology in the territory, which relieves some of the pressure faced by Narik.

This is the border area close to the Persian Empire's Partition Zone VI, and the Persian Empire's tentacles have just reached here to complete the division here, and it is included in the territory of the Persian Empire, and is named the Nasdoc Star Domain by Narik.

Detectors for border guarding here have also been deployed recently.

Not far from here is a relatively isolated star system that the Persian Empire uses as an outpost on the border, where three hundred warships are stationed and fewer soldiers, less than ten thousand. The base is under construction, but it has not yet been perfected due to time constraints.

In charge of this place is Aluk, who was originally a subordinate of Baillett and is now stationed here due to the expansion of the Greek fleet.

In the dark starry sky, Yan Shiyi's fleet was heading towards the Nasdoc star field at high speed, he was not aware of the changes that had taken place in the VII star sector now, and he also did not have the ability to receive the communication of Great Qin in hyperspace.

Aluk, who was checking the feedback from the surrounding patrol fleets at the base, suddenly heard a sharp siren.

"Report to the general, a large number of warships with an unknown fleet are rapidly approaching our base at an extremely high speed, rushing towards the inner star field of the empire."

Aluk listened and hurriedly checked the information, and sure enough, he saw it

When the detector detected a large number of high-speed moving objects approaching rapidly, he quickly pressed the panic button.

Immediately the sirens sounded at the base, and all the battleships that were resting immediately rushed into the air and prepared for battle. Aluk looked at the data on the screen, a wry smile appeared on his face, according to the high-speed motion detector, the opponent's warships were at least no less than 100,000, and his own warships were powerless to resist at all.

He immediately alerted the Persian Empire's military headquarters to the attack, sent the detection data back to the capital, and then made a posture of resistance to the death.

However, Aluk has no hope for the upcoming attack, and the difference in strength between the two sides is too great. Not to mention that the base has not yet been built, even if it is completely built, coupled with the strength of the entire Boxi Empire, it is estimated that it will not be able to compete with this attacking fleet.

Aluk saw despair from the number of opposing fleets that were getting clearer and closer, 100,000 ships were not over yet, and there were still fluctuations of warships coming from behind, more than 100,000 ships!

The speed of the other party was also very fast, but there was no regular space jump, and the entire fleet was like a long snake squirming towards the galaxy.

Aluk sent a recognition signal and sent a request for conversational communication, but the other party ignored it, and did not see that the other party had the intention of slowing down, as if he did not realize himself.

The other party did not show hostility, and even the main cannon was not charged, not like it meant to attack here, which made Aluk a little puzzled, and he was unwilling to erect such a powerful enemy for the newly established Boxi Empire. But he couldn't just let the other side go straight into the hinterland of the empire.

In desperation, Aluk sent another identification signal and sent a communication request using the full frequency band of the interstellar common.

He led one of the warships to meet him slowly, and ordered the other ships to flee as far back as possible if he had an accident. It would be nice that Aluk himself did not abandon the base and fled directly.

Looking at the roaring fleet, Aluk's legs were already trembling, although he had been fighting with General Pellett for a long time, but he was still a little powerless to face such a large fleet alone. With such a huge fleet, let alone fighting, it would be a little suffocating just to face him.

The opponent's fleet rushed in front of him, and instantly surrounded the base, this kind of battleship that had never been seen before was integrated, although it did not jump, but the superb performance still shocked Aluk, and it was able to change from cruising speed to stationary in a short time, which is not something that ordinary warships can do.

Perhaps the communication sent before played a role, when some of the warships in the opposing fleet leaned forward, and a message was transmitted by the rather backward communication technology. This is of course due to the rapid increase in the strength of the Boxi Empire due to the technology provided by Great Qin.

This kind of gap makes Aluk a little puzzled, the performance of the battleship is extremely advanced, and some of the technologies that can be used are indeed a little backward, and there is a gap between most of the warships of the Boxi Empire that now use the technology of the Great Qin Empire.

"I need a star map."

In some distorted and blurry images, a man in a black uniform is unmistakable

said.

"Who is Your Excellency? Why attack the Persian Imperial base? Aluke ignored the other party's request, he first had to figure out the other party's intention to kill here with such a fierce momentum.

He ignores a simple but important reason, the other party's request is actually the goal.

"I need your star map, or I'll fetch it myself." The other party did not answer his question, but emphasized the request again.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of attacking, Aluk calmed down a little, "There is no problem with this, I will present the star map immediately, please wait." ”

Under the pressure of the opponent's powerful fleet, Aluk did not dare to hesitate, and he could order someone to extract the star map he could control from the base. He didn't want to offend this mysterious fleet for the sake of a star map.

Communication was not disconnected, and the two sides were in a quiet stalemate.

Aluk could barely keep his composure, but his warships were not necessarily the same as him, and several of them had quietly retreated. I saw several beams of light shoot towards the slowly retreating battleship, and in an instant, it exploded in the air, and cold sweat oozed from Aluk's forehead.

He was afraid that the other party would attack because of this, so he hurriedly shouted: "Please don't attack, we have no malicious intent." ”

Perhaps Aluk's shouts played a role, the other party did not attack Aluk's battleship and the fleet behind him, and the scene almost fell into a strange state.
