"The biosustaining system is connected."

"Cut the harness!"

"Understood!"

With the sound of Kakaka, dozens of wire harnesses connected to the body were cut off and popped out one after another.

And all the experts in the laboratory, as well as the chief medical officer on the Kaitian, are all realized on a virtual panel at the moment.

What is shown is a chip that has just been removed from the mechanical brain... Ahh

It wasn't until a few minutes later, when there was no noticeable change in vital signs, that everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, there is good news from the expert group.

After separating one of the individuals, the main brain immediately adjusted its own structure, and did not cause the entire main brain to be paralyzed because of the problem with one of the individuals.

The start was undoubtedly smooth.

The next step is to take out the individual's brain and read the information through technical means.

------

"What's going on, on the side of the mechanical civilization, there is still no response?"

"Yes, Commander, our alert range has been extended outward for five hundred light years, not to mention a mechanical planet, not even a single Annihilator has discovered it."

In the bridge, hearing Ling Xiao's report, Jiang Xingchen couldn't help frowning.

Before and after, it's been ten days.

But the mechanical civilization did not react at all, and it seemed that all the combat forces close to the pioneer fleet were withdrawn.

This is obviously not normal.

So, what is the purpose?

"Commander, Chief Scientific Officer Ouyang Qing requests a call."

"Take it!"

Just when Jiang Xingchen was thinking about what kind of calculations the mechanical civilization was making.

The report of the communications officer, Bai Zhi, pulled him back to reality.

A moment later, Ouyang Qing's figure had already appeared in the bridge through virtual projection.

"Ouyang Qing, I remember that you said that it would take at least three months to extract the information of all the individuals, is there something going on?"

"No, Commander, the extraction of information is going very well, and the number of individuals who have been extracted has reached 800."

"Although these 800 memory stores can't piece together all the information, some of the information can already be deciphered, and I think it is necessary to report to you, Commander."

"What did you decipher?"

Jiang Xingchen asked curiously.

Since a week ago, the first instance of an unknown race has been isolated from the main brain and memory extraction has been completed.

Jiang Xingchen got the corresponding report. But unfortunately, the information of mechanical civilization is stored by the entire main brain, and all individuals share it.

In other words, a piece of information can be stored by hundreds or even thousands of individuals, each of whom has a portion.

In this way, in order to obtain all the information, it is necessary to extract all the information of all individuals and then interpret it.

Of course, if you're lucky, it's possible to decipher some of the content after extracting some of the individual's information.

Obviously, this is the situation on Ouyang Qing's side.

And the content of the interpretation is probably quite important, otherwise he would not be in a hurry to report to Jiang Xingchen.

"Commander, we haven't been able to decipher a detailed piece of information at the moment, only some fragments of information, like a few sentences in an article."

"What's the matter?"

"Full speed production of hyperspace engines, the assembly of all marauders, and the trial production of an autonomous war weapon called the Punisher."

That's right, Ouyang Qing didn't decipher a complete piece of information, it was more like deciphering some of the keywords, or part of the table of contents and index of a book.

However, these contents, which are like titles, are extremely important information for Jiang Xingchen.

Yes...

Now that they know about the previous battles, the mechanical civilization can understand that their single attack mode and jump technology that can be limited at any time will be difficult to defeat the pioneer fleet.

Even if it relies on a sufficient number, the pioneer fleet can take advantage of hyperspace technology to fight a war of annihilation in the galaxy, and eventually slowly consume the entire mechanical civilization.

And mechanical civilization is not without hyperspace engines, they have!

According to the analysis of the staff officers, it should be that some of the lost transport ships of the Scorpion Pirate Regiment were obtained before, and the hyperspace engine was successfully reproduced.

It's just that there isn't much production right now.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent just one fleet to make trouble in the Sid system.

So, this is the plan to massively expand the production of hyperspace engines and completely recondition...

Fight us again?

As for what the punisher is, Jiang Xingchen doesn't have the slightest clue yet.

But in any case, the Pioneer Fleet cannot continue to remain indifferent.

Otherwise, once the mechanical civilization is completely redressed in advance, the pioneer fleet will definitely have no chance of winning.

After all, even the Federation has no means to hinder or interfere with hyperspace technology.

At that time, people can directly approach their own range in the form of hyperspace navigation, or simply rush directly into the Federation fleet array.

"Ling Xiao!"

"Commander?"

"Immediately arrange for all Pixiu-class strategic reconnaissance ships in the fleet to spread to the entire Bart system and find out where the mechanical civilization is located."

"Yes, I'll do it."

After Ling Xiao left, Jiang Xingchen's fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the command chair.

It's not difficult to find out where the mechanical civilization is!

It doesn't even take a few days.

After all, the entire mechanical civilization is concentrated, and with the capabilities of the Pixiu-class strategic reconnaissance ship, it can be easily discovered a hundred light years away.

In addition, the Bart system is not a large galaxy, only 5,000 light-years in diameter.

The point is...

What should I do if I find it?

Although if it is detected in advance, the worst case of hyper-spatial transformation of the entire mechanical civilization can be avoided.

However, it is inevitable that some of them are already equipped with hyperspace engines.

Even if this part is not very large, it is enough to pose a great threat to the development fleet.

This battle...

It's still very dangerous.

------

Three days later.

Among the dozens of Pixiu-class strategic reconnaissance ships dispatched, one sent back the news.

Where the mechanical civilization is located...

It's confirmed!

At the same time, the scale of mechanical civilization is reported.

There are 275 mechanical planets.

What is this concept?

Based on the calculation of 1,000 Slayer warships for each mechanical planet, this is 275,000.

And according to the calculation of 1,000 Annihilator war weapons in each Slayer warship, that is...

275,000,000 Annihilators!

This amount...

Even if the pioneer fleet can play a super high battle loss ratio as before.

That's not going to work.

What's more, there is a high probability that the other party already has a part of its troops, loaded with the existence of a hyperspace engine.

This battle...

It's not easy to fight.

But who says there's only one way to war?

Gradually, Jiang Xingchen had an idea...
