Qu Jianlei waited until the warship sailed three million kilometers before taking out a space mecha - the lifeboat was still a little bigger.

Even so, he relied on his own cultivation to push the mecha to accelerate, rather than directly starting the mecha.

In this case, there is really no more adventure to be done.

The mecha accelerated to a certain extent before he entered the cockpit, intending to grab the nutrients and the life support pod and hurry.

The nutrient flashed, and it also squeezed into the cab, "It will consume internal breath in space!" ”

Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes helplessly, just now I thought I was holding it for too long, but it was you.

But it's all a trivial matter, and a day later, Xiaohu finally connects to the program fragment on the Ominous Ship.

It's just that the situation of the Ominous Ship is also a bit delicate, and it has found a large number of warships in space. A lot of it is around it.

In the constant dodge, it took nearly a day for Qu Jianlei and the three of them to board the ominous ship.

After the flower scorpion was released, the first thing it said was, "So many days...... Is this in trouble again? ”

Qu Jianlei nodded, "The interference of spatial fluctuations objectively exists, but fortunately, the deviation is not far away." ”

Over the course of the next three days, the Ominous Ship carefully bypassed the various starships and finally reached a place where it could jump.

The three of them discussed it and decided to go back to Qingyuan Star first, the corpse of the creature in another space, and they were not in a hurry to study it.

Although the nutrients were a little itchy, he still nodded, "The limelight is a little tight, it's better to avoid it." ”

It's true that she's supreme, but this time it's too big for anyone to take that risk.

However, at this moment, the big-headed butterfly turned again, "Boss, more than 20 million kilometers away, there is a fleet chasing after you!" ”

In the process of evacuating, the Ominous Ship intermittently dropped a lot of micro detectors and small micro relays.

This is to ensure that the situation can be observed and early warning can be made in time.

It is now clear that someone has found the detector and repeater and is currently chasing after the Ouroboros.

This is not unexpected, and if the military were to go all out, those tiny devices would certainly be exposed.

Although the throwing process is intermittent and it is not easy to chase, it is the fleet that is chasing, so there is no problem.

Multiple starships can try and make mistakes at the same time, and it doesn't take long to find the right direction at the breakpoint.

The Ominous Ship itself did not flee at full speed, but instead maintained a relatively low speed in order to reduce its presence.

So much so that the other party actually chased after him, and the distance kept getting closer.

However, Xiaohu is not sure about the composition of the fleet, because the power of the probes is too low.

Nine times out of ten, it is the military...... Perhaps it was joint law enforcement, Qu Jianlei made a judgment.

Otherwise, the other party will be able to hold on, and a fleet will be struggling to pursue a starship?

Then you have to hurry up and make the leap! Qu Jianlei looked at the nutrients.

"In the latest technology of the Empire, is there any way to determine the location of the jump by capturing the fluctuation of the jump?"

After thinking about it, he shook his head a little embarrassedly, "I really don't know this very well. ”

Her strength lies in cultivation, although she also knows a lot of other knowledge, but this is really not what she is good at.

"If anything, it's top secret...... It's impossible to know unless I deliberately inquire. ”

After Qu Jianlei and others made a mistake in the first transmission, she found that the boss was out of touch, and she also wanted to inquire about similar news.

But the information about the jump is still too sensitive, and she doesn't have particularly profound attainments in this area.

If she asks someone to ask, it's easy to get suspicious: Why did you suddenly think of this question?

In that case, it may cause unnecessary associations and trouble.

She didn't like trouble, the key was that Qu Jianlei and the others had already jumped at that time, and those abnormal energy fluctuations didn't last long.

When she worked hard to inquire about the news, it was too late to observe and analyze.

In light of this, she did not do this useless work.

Qu Jianlei muttered softly when he heard this, "Then let's make a few more jumps...... It's a lot of damage to the starship. ”

"It's time for this starship to be maintained, too," Nutrient nodded, "Let's go to Zihong Star, I've just made arrangements there." ”

At this moment, chasing behind the ominous ship is the regimental-level ship of the Ministry of Foreign Management, as well as some starships from the military and the government.

After they cleaned the battlefield, they didn't find any spatial equipment such as the Natal Talisman.

The search has not ended until now, and there is a strange situation...... No human tissue was found on the battlefield!

Even if both starships were blown up, the situation would be incredible.

Originally, they also planned to find as many body tissues as possible and confirm each other's identities through genetic comparison.

This calculation was wrong, and the alien management department couldn't help but guess: Didn't the people on the ship die?

This speculation is a bit bizarre, but considering the eerie spatial fluctuations before the starship self-destructed, it doesn't seem entirely impossible.

There is another phenomenon that can make some support for this speculation.

After the small attack ship was blown up, there was no human tissue in the fragments.

The two starships were completely on fire before they converged, that is, the small ships at that time were unmanned.

What does it mean that an unmanned attack ship can inflict such great damage on its own side?

It shows that the central control system must be supported by huge computing power, and the response speed is definitely not slow.

As for whether there is a powerful artificial intelligence? It's not easy to say, there are many possibilities.

But it is certain that to be able to develop such a powerful unmanned starship, the other party's technological level is definitely not low.

The military and the Department of Heterogeneous Management know a lot about the scientific and technological level of the Empire, and the top brass also knows about the existence of data warships and unmanned starships.

They were very sure that an unmanned starship of this level far surpassed the known Imperial technology.

According to this reasoning, behind those two starships is a very powerful mysterious force.

It's normal for such a force to have some other hole cards, right?

They have thought about the possibility of "near-ground jumping", but they always feel ...... It's still a bit too high-end.

But the possibility of temporary use of means to break down the barriers of space is objective.

From the perspective of the science and technology of the entire empire, the "jump" itself can actually be regarded as a form of breaking down the barriers of space.

It's just that the jump is briefly broken, and soon it returns, and that's it.

If someone can break the barrier in disguise, but don't need to return in a hurry, can they escape?

In that case, even concerns about "near-ground jumping" can be put aside for the time being.

Of course, it is not easy to do this, but this possibility exists in theory.

It's still not a very realistic guess, but what about expanding it a little further?

You know, the opponent's starship rushed out of the energy beam!

Before that, did the starship actively enter the energy beam and then run out, or did it ...... Already in the energy beam?

It's just that because the space barrier has been substantially damaged, it took the opportunity to rush out?

All kinds of speculations are very fanciful and overestimate the opponent, but these speculations together can barely justify themselves.

Besides, why did it fail before? Is it because of your own estimation of the other party, which is a little insufficient?

After the Ministry of Foreign Management put forward such a speculation, no one refutated it, whether it was the military or the government.

The official even stated: This company-class ship does not rule out the possibility that it belongs to the rebel forces!

Rebel forces...... At the lower end of the spectrum, it is the Resistance Group, and at the higher end, it may be other countries!

Since it may be a force outside the jurisdiction of the empire, it is not difficult to understand that there are some unknown innovations in some aspects.

The three sides quickly reached a consensus that they must use all their forces to dig out an adversary who might be absconding.

Of course, the words are a bit high-sounding, and as for what they think in their hearts, only they know.

In any case, the three parties agreed on the same opinion, and formed a joint law enforcement fleet and began to search for suspicious starships everywhere.

It's also thanks to Qu Jianlei that he found the ominous ship, and it didn't take long, otherwise it's hard to say what would have happened.

Since then, the Ominous Ship has been evacuated all the way in a low-key manner, and it really did the right thing, and the three parties have scattered a large number of starships and manpower to find clues.

After searching and eliminating some suspicious ships, a large number of small detectors were observed by searchers.

Among these probes, some are used by the Ominous Ship to search for Qu Jianlei and the others, and some are used to explore the back road.

There are even some of them that were deliberately released by the previous ominous ships to observe the surroundings in order to protect themselves.

If these probes are scattered, it is impossible to recycle, and when the energy is exhausted, it is space junk.

The problem is that the Ominous Ship has a lot of detectors, and it's so miniature that it's a bit sneaky.

If the searching starship only finds one or two probes, it probably won't care much.

But there are enough detectors found by the search teams, and the models are relatively fixed!

After a few tiny repeaters were also discovered, the three parties attached great importance to the situation!

The repeaters are all very rudimentary kinds, which are used for emergency purposes at first glance and temporarily transmit information in space.

You know, in the public space of the empire, private people were not allowed to privately form communication networks.

So, who would use repeaters like that?

Gradually, the suspicions were concentrated on one or several "ghost ships".

This is the scene where the fleet is catching up.

It took some time for the three parties to clean up the battlefield, make judgments and search for suspected ships extensively.

Otherwise, the Ominous Ship could have been targeted much earlier.

This tracking team is quite large, with more than a dozen capital ships, as well as scientific research ships and many small ships.

After these days of searching, the manpower and material resources consumed are massive, and the pressure on the three parties is gradually increasing.

But the alien management department is determined to track it down - this is their only chance to save face.
