Chapter 882: One thousandth of the speed of light

Considered by Emperor Wu III to be the current "solution" of the space war between the Federation and the Empire, the "Xinghe" finally revealed one-third of its theoretical limit speed when it was attached to the sixth spacecraft and reached a distance of one million kilometers from the Azure Star.

The parties did not agree with this display at first, although everyone thought that this display was necessary, but they thought that other mechfighters should replace Ji Xinghe to pilot Xinghe. Because, in order for Galaxy to reach one-third of its theoretical top speed, it must use the 'Emperor Engine', which does not have the possibility of large-scale application.

This is the name given by Xingyue, which is also called the 'nuclear explosion engine' in the relevant documents of the Federal Academy of Sciences.

The name doesn't matter, the important thing is that this engine is very dangerous to use.

However, Ji Xinghe insisted on his opinion, and like a tyrant, with the authority of the commander of the Federation's space defense headquarters, he issued an order to clear a shipping lane in the relevant area. As a result, the relevant parties can only implement it head-on.

In the private sector of the Federation, when there is already a space car that can go directly into space, the space is only a million kilometers away from the Azure Star, although it still looks very empty, but in fact there are a lot of 'obstacles'.

The Lingshan defense system bears the brunt of the attack, which is a dense defense network composed of hundreds of thousands of military satellites, space missile launch platforms, air and space posts, individual starships, spaceships, space warships, and so on.

There is also the lunar base, which is a springboard for human beings to enter space, and it maintains the main connection role of Azure Star, Moon, and Alien Star all the time, and I don't know how many aviation vehicles are transiting from the Moon, and their most dense area is in the lunar orbit only about 400,000 kilometers away from Azure Star.

This is not the traffic in space, but the glory of human ingenuity.

"How to clear a channel, if the Galaxy breaks out of extreme speed, it can't be accurately controlled, its speed is too fast, if there is a mistake......"

"Keep your mouth shut, and empty it when you want it to be empty."

"But it's really easy to make mistakes, and it's easy to cause great losses, it's not easy to build the Lingshan space defense system, many aircraft are actually spacecraft themselves, and they were forcibly sent to space by us, so it's easy to make them move, and it's not so easy to let them go back."

Aircraft generally refers to aircraft that can fly in space, and spacecraft generally refers to vehicles that can fly in the atmosphere, and the difference between the two is very large. Spacecraft designed to fly in the atmosphere first need the support of oxygen in the fuel to be able to fully burn and release energy, and secondly, the reaction force provided by the air needs to be able to increase the speed rapidly.

The Federation's fighter jets cannot be used on Alien for these two reasons.

Although some spacecraft can be sent into space and have the ability to fly after modification, and because they can theoretically carry out infinite acceleration in space, the requirements for acceleration ability are not high. But it is not only chemical fuels that are needed, but also liquid oxygen as one of the fuels, which is difficult and expensive to replenish in space.

Changing the course in order to clear a course while the course is already fixed will increase the cost in itself. After that, you have to return to the previous course, and the consumption will increase again.

"If something goes wrong, who's at risk?"

"General Ji, I know, it's General Ji, so we shouldn't be testing in this area, we can extend the test area outward. Three million kilometers away from Azure Star, no matter how you test it, you don't need to clear any channels. ”

"You know this, General Ji doesn't know? Yes, General Ji was originally just an ordinary auto mechanic on the Azure Star, he may not know this information, but the staff officers around him don't know? Why, do they insist on testing in this area? ”

"Why?"

"Because if the Galaxy is really going to be used, it must be in the space region one million kilometers away from the Azure Star."

“……”

"Got it?"

"Got it."

"Do things."

"Yes."

The process of clearing the waterway, as well as the thoughts in the minds of the relevant personnel, as well as some of the arguments, discussions, discussions, etc., that occurred in them, have nothing to do with Ji Xinghe.

It has been six years, and he has been in the army for six years, not only from a professional and technical private, promoted to the only active five-star general in the Federation, but also learned a lot of truths. This, and many other things, can be dealt with in one way – prioritize whether the goal has to be accomplished, and if so, regardless of the cost.

If that spaceship does come to the solar system, it will inevitably go straight to the Azure Star. Even if that spaceship can defeat the Federation's space fleet stationed on alien planets, it will definitely come to Azure Star, because this is the root of the Federation, the root of humanity, and the root that cannot be given up for the time being.

Therefore, the area of use of Galaxy must be in a spherical space region one million kilometers away from Azure Star, and it is not limited to the direction of alien stars.

Emptying the channel is also an exercise, but at this stage, the Federation will definitely not explain the threat of 'that spaceship' to the public, and the test of the Galaxy has become a good excuse.

"Old man, do you really want to come in person?"

Li Zhengfan's voice sounded in Ji Xinghe's ears, he had already driven Xinghe away from the spaceship he was on, alone in the deep sky, looking at the blue one million kilometers away.

"Yes."

In the process of Ji Xinghe's response, Xingyue had already marked Li Zhengfan's location and status on Ji Xinghe's visual window. At this time, Li Zhengfan was in the bridge of a space battleship, although he was not the captain of this space battleship, it was obvious that he was the captain of this space battleship, and the name had nothing to do with the facts.

This space battleship cruising in lunar orbit has some obvious differences from the active space battleships of the Federation Space Fleet, and the information provided by Xingyue shows that its code name is 'Dragon One', which is the first Dragon-class main space battleship made by the Federation Dragon Continent, and its status in the space fleet is equivalent to the status of an aircraft carrier.

The name of the latest generation of space battleship sequence level of the Federation uses the twelve zodiac signs of Dragon Continent, and the dragon class is naturally the absolute main force. Space battleships with other zodiac signs as the name of the sequence level have their own emphasis.

For example, the Tiger class, similar to the status of a former cruiser, the Ma-class, similar to the status of a former destroyer, and so on.

"Okay then." Li Zhengfan didn't persuade much, but directly changed the topic: "I hope you can help me realize my dream." ”

What is that dream of Li Zhengfan? Receive the gift in the physical form of a space battleship and transform into a special life form.

But this matter, Ji Xinghe said before that it should be completed by Li Yuanba, after Li Yuanba and Li Zhengfan both returned to the Azure Star, Li Anbang also persuaded Li Yuanba as Ji Xinghe expected, but it was only because Li Yuanba had not been able to obtain the ability of the gift, so this matter has not been completed.

Ji Xinghe hadn't been in contact with Li Zhengfan and them for a long time, and as soon as he heard Li Zhengfan's words at this time, he understood why Li Yuanba hadn't mastered the ability of the gift - he didn't want Li Zhengfan to become a space battleship.

"Wait three more days."

Ji Xinghe replied in a calm tone, but Li Zhengfan was overjoyed, and suddenly became sad, but this sadness was hidden deep in his heart.

At the same time, Li Yuanba also heard this conversation, which was deliberately done by Li Zhengfan.

So he said, "Not for three days, not for you." ”

Li Zhengfan smiled even more happily, but because his physical state was still in robot form, and the expression display function on the face armor screen was turned off by him again, so no one could see his smile.

Li Zhengfan, Li Yuanba, and perhaps Li Anbang, the problems that the three of them have not been able to solve in the past year have been directly solved before Ji Xinghe can really return to the Azure Star. Moreover, this is not just a matter of the three of them, Li Yuanba has mastered the ability of gifts, which is of great significance to all mankind.

The communication channel quieted down, although there were still some people who wanted to say something to Ji Xinghe, but all of them were blocked by Liu Mian and Su He, who followed Ji Xinghe back to the Azure Star, one blocked the people inside the military system, and the other blocked the people in the government system and the people, which can be regarded as having their own strengths.

When the news that the channel was cleared came, Ji Xinghe directly activated the Xinghe. This time it was he who started it himself, not Xingyue who helped him control the Starriver.

The original propulsion engine at the tail of the Galaxy was stagnant in the depths of space, and the original propulsion engine at the tail disappeared in the process of mechanical expansion and deformation, and was replaced by a special propulsion engine made of tungsten steel gold.

Ji Xinghe, who was standing on the Xinghe, squatted down, the necessity of this posture was actually not great during the flight, but if it was in the process of fighting, it would be very big, and he would inevitably be the target of the attack, the smaller the size, the less likely he was to be hit by the attack.

The roar suddenly sounded, and only Ji Xinghe himself could hear it in the world, not even the people who had maintained a communication connection with him a second ago, because the electromagnetic pulse that could interfere with the communication had already spread to the surroundings at almost the speed of light at the moment when the nuclear explosion occurred in the propulsion engine of Xinghe.

The reconnaissance satellites that focused on the Galaxy and the Champion Hou were only able to capture a touch of brilliance, and the integrated Galaxy and Champion Hou completely disappeared from their sight, and only other detection devices could capture the rapid movement of the Galaxy and transform into a red point of light on multiple large screens.

Without any line of sight, he could see the state of the Galaxy at this time, because its speed had soared to 40,000 kilometers per hour in an instant.

At the current speed, it only takes twenty-five hours to be able to take the Ji Galaxy across a distance of one million kilometers to reach the Azure Star. It only takes less than two months for it to be able to return to another planet with the Ji Xinghe again, which is faster than the cruise speed of most of the spaceships and warships in active service in the Federation.

However, this was only the first acceleration of the Galaxy.

With a loud bang, along with the physical connection, it entered Ji Xinghe's consciousness, and he still maintained a certain line of sight because of the vastness of space, and he could clearly see the blue in the distance, which was getting bigger at a faster speed.

The second nuclear explosion of the Emperor engine accelerated, sending the speed of the Galaxy soaring to 70,000 kilometers per hour. It's like a manhole cover that was once blasted into space by a nuclear explosion at a speed of 70 kilometers per second, but at this point it is much slower, because the way and where the nuclear explosion occurred are not the same.

If you only pursue speed, Xingyue and the Federal Academy of Sciences can make the Galaxy faster at this time, and it is easy to accelerate two nuclear explosions, exceeding 300,000 kilometers per hour. But that is uncontrollable, it will cause damage to the galaxy, and it can only be used once.

What can be controlled and reused is what can really be called 'mastered'.

At this time, the speed of the Star River has reached the limit speed of the Federation spaceship and the space battleship, but it is obviously impossible to catch up with the spaceship from the third civilization. If it was so easy, Emperor Wu III would have already killed Ji Xinghe and Ji Rong Xinyue in the No. 1 Empire Leap Base on the Mountain of the Gods.

But it doesn't matter, Starship is also capable of accelerating, and it can theoretically accelerate an infinite number of times in space.

The third roar...... The fourth roar...... The Sixth Roar......

The speed of Xinghe has soared to 300,000 kilometers per hour, reaching 1 of 3,600 of the speed of light, almost close to the speed limit of existing human spacecraft.

If it travels to another planet at this rate, Ji Xinghe will now be able to reach another planet from Azure Star in only eight days.

Of course, this is only theoretical, and there are still many issues to consider in terms of implementation. However, now is not the time to consider how long it will take for Ji Xinghe to reach the alien star, the most important thing to consider now is that after many accelerations, Ji Xinghe is getting closer and closer to the Azure Star.

"Lord, change direction, it's already a third of the theoretical speed."

Xingyue reminded Ji Xinghe in her ear that now she is the only one in the world who can talk to Ji Xinghe, and she is not affected by various external factors.

This time the test only needs to be tested to 300,000 kilometers per hour, although this speed may not be enough, but after all, it is only a manned test of the actual aircraft, and there is no need to bear more risks.

But Ji Xinghe can become Ji Xinghe, how can he let himself go so easily?

The aftermath of multiple nuclear explosions has begun to affect his body, but with the isolation and distribution of tungsten steel and biological tissues, as well as his own non-human capacity, the impact is completely controllable.

"Closer."

Ji Xinghe looked at the blue that was getting bigger and bigger in his sight, and knew very well that this was actually a psychological factor. In terms of the volume of the Azure Star, the distance between one million kilometers and eight hundred thousand kilometers seems to be not so intuitive.

Xingyue didn't persuade again, she also knew that it was not the Xinghe that really needed to be tested, but the Ji Xinghe who might be the only one who needed to drive the real Xinghe. But she was ready to accept the control of the Galaxy at any time, and she didn't want to see Ji Xinghe crash into Azure Star, or the various federal aircraft, space elevators, space stations, etc. in Azure Star's low Earth orbit.

As time passed, Ji Xinghe rushed towards the Azure Star at an unprecedented speed, making all the people who watched this show more and more anxious.

When there were only 400,000 kilometers left in the distance, Azure Star had already occupied most of Ji Xinghe's sight, and giant phobia did not exist for him, but combined with the speed at this time, Ji Xinghe's heart also produced some waves.

What will happen if you bump into it?

Ji Xinghe thought so, but in his sight, the Azure Star had disappeared, replaced by an unfamiliar spaceship.

Of course, what he wanted to hit couldn't be the Azure Star, but the ship, if he couldn't force his way onto the ship by then......

Then let yourself become the sharpest knife in all mankind!

With a bang, the nuclear explosion engine was started again, and when the Galaxy was only 300,000 kilometers away from the Azure Star, it successfully completed the change of direction and sailed away from the Azure Star.

After that, the speed of the Galaxy began to return to normal, and it returned to Azure Star again. Li Zhengfan took his space battleship to greet him, and when Ji Xinghe successfully boarded the ship, everyone cheered, but what no one knew was what Ji Xinghe thought about in this display and what he was going to do in the future.
