Chapter 164: Chaos is frequent
Inside the bridge command room of the Sea Locust.
Meng Lei held a cigarette in his mouth, sat on the command chair with the leather seat cover crossed, holding a coffee cup in his left hand and a tablet in his right hand.
That leisurely posture looked extremely comfortable, not at all like a fleet commander who had just experienced a big battle.
After these days of training, Meng Lei has not only improved his submarine control level by leaps and bounds, but also greatly strengthened his combat command ability and psychological quality, and his growth rate is quite amazing.
So much so that a battle of the scale just now could no longer cause any ripples in his heart.
Taking advantage of the free time of the fleet members cleaning up the battlefield, he picked up the tablet on the center console and began to boredly scroll through the news and watch hot searches.
With a large number of Blue Star players pouring into the depths of the channel, the news in recent days has been nothing short of buzzing.
In the past, the headlines of the major media were almost entirely occupied by current events in the political arena of the alliance, and even lace news was very rare.
The news content is dry and boring, and most of the time the people who watch it are drowsy.
However, the news in recent days is really a bit of a hundred flowers, it looks like scrolling Weibo, and the content is so rich that it is breathtaking.
And most of them are about a series of encounters encountered by Blue Star players in the process of exploration.
Thanks to the fact that the initial clearance boat far exceeds the current communication level of the Alliance's technology, no matter where it is, even in the unknown sea area where there is no Alliance signal coverage, the communication channel of the waterway will not be affected in any way.
Therefore, there is no obstacle to communication between players.
Including text information and video recordings, whenever something new happens, it can be widely disseminated at the first time.
The alliance has long recognized this, so it has acquired a large number of player reclamation boats, which are dedicated to information gathering, and then spread the special events in the channel around the world through media channels.
Tens of thousands of waterways, all kinds of strange things happening all the time, the amount of information combined is simply amazing!
This is also the reason why Meng Lei has fallen in love with the news recently, and he can eat melons coolly.
With a swipe of your fingertips, the tablet's lock screen is opened, and one current event news after another appears on the screen.
Although due to signal problems, many news content cannot be refreshed immediately, and videos also need to be buffered for a long time.
But the text title is not affected, and it is presented in front of you for the first time.
Meng Lei looked at it with great interest.
[Shocked!
Following the bizarre incident of the 54326 channel, the Creel returned safely from the uncharted sea, saying that in the dark abyss of the seabed, it saw a huge trace of suspected life, and it seems to be gradually recovering! 】
[Alliance scientific research station detective!
There was a large-scale mountain collapse in the Modisfinn Ridge, and the scientific research ship found a deep-sea experimental base suspected to be established by alien pioneers in the cracks of the mountain after the collapse, and the nearby was shrouded in some unknown energy place, causing a huge sensation! 】
[Extra!
According to experts, the impact of the space tide is unprecedented, not only for living organisms, the alliance calls on all citizens to be vigilant, if it is not necessary, try not to go to sea, so as not to encounter accidents! 】
[What's new!]
There are three fleets on the alliance side of the Eastern Theater of Operations, which have recently lost contact with each other in the Gadenia Basin, and the reason for the loss of contact is unknown, the danger level of this sea area has increased, and it has been listed as a red forbidden zone, and all ships are advised to detour cautiously! 】
……
All kinds of messy reports have emerged one after another, all of which have happened in the past few days, and Meng Lei was dazzled by it.
News content spans the globe, with unique discoveries in almost every shipping lane, and much of this information is provided by Blue Star players.
This alien ocean is so vast that the safe shipping lanes established by the Tias occupy less than 10% of the ocean's area.
In that eternal and dark world, there are still a lot of unknown areas that have not yet been explored.
In the nearly 100 years since it lost contact with its home planet, the Alliance has stopped its exploration.
The arrival of Blue Star players can be regarded as launching a new wave of development.
And as many inaccessible areas are frequently set foot in, various discoveries have been made, and the secrets hidden in the darkness have been revealed, as if to reveal something.
There are a lot of unknowns, and even the alliance side cannot give a clear explanation.
The comments on the Internet have long been fried, and all kinds of calls have been raised.
Some people are scared, some people are excited, including those who have a strong sense of the big picture among the league and Blue Star players, all of them are worried, and they have a premonition that the days of stability are over, and there will definitely be big things happening in the future!
In particular, the space tidal phenomenon seems to be different this time.
Not only was the speed of the outbreak unprecedentedly rapid, covering most of the world's seas in a very short period of time, but the scope of impact also changed inexplicably.
Based on past experience on the part of the Alliance, space tides generally only affect the biological level.
One of the most representative phenomena is that a large number of deep-sea organisms that should not live in shallow areas will inexplicably appear in shallow waters, posing a huge threat to the passage of safe waterways.
And almost all the disasters caused by space tides are caused by biological riots.
Other than that, there are no other effects.
And this time, the outbreak of space tides not only brought deep-sea creatures to the shallow waters, but even some buildings in the flat-level areas mysteriously appeared in places where they should not exist.
One of the most representative examples is that such an incident occurred in the 59864 shipping lanes in the Eastern Hemisphere.
The Broli Settlement is the main city of the Alliance of the 59864 Seaway, located on a vast undersea plain.
The main city was originally very desolate, full of white sand and reefs, and there were no adjacent outposts or colonies within a radius of nearly 100 kilometers.
But just last night, on the submarine plain, less than fifteen kilometers away from Broly's gathering place, an unknown complex of buildings inexplicably appeared.
This discovery was first made by a Blue Star player who was doing a mission nearby, and it immediately attracted the attention of the alliance.
As a result, a scientific research fleet, escorted by combat units, quickly arrived at the scene.
After some exploration, the Alliance came to a shocking conclusion based on the relevant clues found within the complex.
This mysterious and unknown complex turned out to be an Alliance mining station that had long been lost in the leveling area!
Since the fracture between the shallow and flat waterways, the mine has not been able to contact the Allies for nearly sixty years, and has become a written history sealed in the archives.
But now, it has inexplicably appeared in the shallow sea area, which is beyond the current scientific and technological understanding.
In the end, this mysterious phenomenon can only be attributed to the influence of space tides.
And when the mining station was discovered, it was not complete.
The entire mining station originally occupied a very large area, and the building area was quite large, and the part of the building complex that could be embedded in the submarine plain was nothing more than the living quarters of the mining station.
The industrial area connected to the living area is as if it has been forcibly cut off by some force, and the facets are completely integrated into the cold and hard rock.
This unbelievable phenomenon cannot be reasonably explained at the current level of science and technology of the Alliance.
And the mysterious phenomenon similar to this incident has also been exposed to the eyes of the world as Blue Star players continue to explore and deepen.
There is no pattern to the occurrence of these phenomena, some of them are found in the vicinity of safe shipping lanes established by the Alliance, and some are found in various places in uncharted waters that are rarely set foot by people.
Only, as of now.
All ancient complexes that have been found and confirmed to be buildings in the flat-story area, in which there is absolutely no sign of life.
They are like ancient ruins that appear out of thin air, and like tombstones that no one pays tribute to, standing silently in the dark, silently revealing something to the world.
It's like some kind of warning and sign, and it's vaguely unsettling.
In two or three days, most of the Blue Star players who successfully smuggled out have not been able to run too far, and the current range of activities is still within the sea area that the alliance has explored and mastered.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Even so, all kinds of chaos have been exposed.
It is not difficult to imagine that as the exploration continues to deepen and the scope of exploration gradually expands, more discoveries will surface in the future!
With his fingertips sliding, Meng Lei looked at them one by one, and his eyes gradually became solemn.
He knows very well that the things that have been exposed so far are just the beginning.
What the future development will become, even the current Alien Ruler Alliance organization, is uncertain.
The outbreak of abnormal spatial tides, coupled with the war that had already begun, doomed this deep dark ice ocean to be unable to be peaceful.
If you want to protect yourself, you must expand the strength of your fleet as soon as possible and strengthen yourself in order to gain a foothold in the turmoil.
For some reason, through the abundance of news reports these days, he has a vague feeling.
I always feel that this marine world seems to be inexplicably restless, and everything is a little different.
At this time, just when he was thinking for a while and guessing in his heart, a new message reminder suddenly popped up on the screen.
Looking closely, the sender turned out to be Chen Yu.
Meng Lei did not hesitate, hurriedly clicked on the message, and what caught his eye was Chen Yu's concerned words.
"How's the voyage going? You haven't been in any danger lately, have you? ”
Since leaving the G43 beacon station, Meng Lei has still maintained his usual habits and will report his safety to his hometown every day.
Chen Yu's so-called latest is actually a time period of nearly twelve hours.
There is no way, as the influence of space tides gradually intensifies, the long-distance fleet frequently encounters large-scale battles.
Almost every once in a while, a large number of sea monsters will be encountered.
This kind of thing cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide it.
Therefore, the contact between Chen Yu and the long-distance fleet became more and more frequent, for fear that the fleet would encounter a crisis in a certain battle and some major accidents would occur.
Meng Lei slid his finger across the screen and typed out a line of words and sent it over.
"It's all right, don't worry."
Soon, Chen Yu's message was displayed on the screen again, and it was obvious that the other party had been staying by the tablet, quietly waiting for a reply.
"It's okay, there have been too many things that have happened recently, I heard that many bounty fleets are trapped in the safe channel, attacked by a large number of sea monsters, and cannot return home, the alliance has even set up a special rescue fleet to be responsible for the cleaning of the channel, if the road ahead is really difficult to walk, come back if it doesn't work, don't continue to move forward, so as not to block the way back!"
Chen's mother is still like a competent nanny, always expressing her eager care for Meng Lei.
Looking at the words full of concern on the screen, the corners of Meng Lei's mouth subconsciously rose slightly, and he only felt warm in his heart.
He swiped his finger across the screen and continued:
"Don't worry, the fleet has plenty of firepower, and it has not encountered much threat for the time being, if it is really invincible, and it has enough self-protection ability, I will choose the right time to return at the right time."
It didn't take long for Chen Yu to send a reply.
"That's good, pay attention to safety, remember what I told you before going to sea, and in the last resort, you must learn to break your arm to survive!"
Meng Lei responded with a smile, saying that he would make a careful choice.
After a while, Chen Yu didn't speak for a long time, and just when Meng Lei thought that this communication could be declared over, Chen Yu suddenly sent another inexplicable message.
"An Ran of the Northern Underworld Fleet, has you been in contact with you recently?"
Meng Lei was suspicious for a while, and he was a little unclear.
Chen Yu's question was really a bit too sudden, even brainless, without any foreshadowing, very abrupt.
Meng Lei replied suspiciously:
"We haven't been in touch for about two or three days, we don't seem to have spoken since the fleet arrived at the G43 beacon station, what's wrong, what's wrong?"
After the voyage fleet lost contact with the thalamus at the G43 beacon station, the first time the communication was restored, Meng Lei also received a message from Enron.
At that time, he only replied politely, and then An Ran did not reply, and he did not continue to communicate with the other party.
After all, although the relationship between the two is not bad, they are not familiar enough to chat when they have nothing to do.
In addition, the fleet has been fighting continuously in recent days, and Meng Lei does not have the time and energy to think too much about things other than propulsion speed, so he has never contacted Enron again.
At that moment, Chen Yu suddenly raised this question, which suddenly made Meng Lei a little confused.
From the point of view of time, Enron and his group have been away from Xier City for a week.
It stands to reason that at this time, he should also return to the city of Syr.
Because Enron had said at the beginning that this voyage would not go too far, but was just a test for the fleet to launch an exploration.
And Chen Yu's question obviously proved that Enron and the others did not return, which made Meng Lei faintly have a hint of foreboding.
"What's the situation? Could it be that something happened to them? ”
As soon as this thought emerged, Chen Yu's reply came from the tablet.
"Commander-in-Chief An of the Northern Underworld Fleet has been missing for more than two days, and the preliminary judgment is that it is likely to be shipwrecked......
