Three months is not a long time, but it is not a short time.

For most Blue Star players, the passage of time is just to make them more accustomed to some of the deep-sea life after crossing, and temporarily find their own position in this boundless and dark alien ocean society.

However, for Meng Lei and his party, this short period of three months is like a world away.

During this period, everyone experienced too many changes and countless life and death crises.

When stepping on the deck of the dock dock in Sil City again, the mentality of every crew member who survived this trip changed dramatically, and there was an indescribable awe of this strange and dark deep-sea world.

At this time, under the leadership of Chen Yu, the Chongming fleet also developed into the largest Blue Star player fleet in the 66671 channel.

Not only does it have a membership of nearly 8,000 people, but it also has more than 7,000 top-level players' initial wasteland boats, including 35 E-class sequence ordinary alliance exploration ships.

A team of this size, in terms of strength alone, far exceeds the official permanent force of the Sil City Alliance.

Compared with the Blue Star Fleet, which started at the same time such as the Deep Blue Fleet and the Winter Fleet, it is no longer on the same level.

Therefore, out of jealousy, the officials of the Sil City Alliance began to suppress the Chongming Fleet, intentionally or unintentionally, in order to limit its development trend that was almost out of control.

A series of measures, such as restricting the purchase of resources, controlling behavior, and restricting the area of activity, have become the main ways for the alliance to restrain the heavy fleet in recent times.

And in order to avoid the exposure of his identity, Roger is helpless in this regard, and can only partially help in terms of intelligence.

Fortunately, Chen Yu had anticipated the current situation long before this, and he knew that the alliance could not always allow the unbridled joint development of Blue Star players, so he used the large amount of funds provided by Meng Lei to secretly hoard a batch of resource reserves outside Xi'er City in advance.

Even if the alliance restricts more than 80% of the purchasing power, it will not be completely choked.

However, this is not a long-term solution.

The fleet needs to develop and continue to grow, and it cannot be left under the fence forever.

In the end, Meng Lei, Chen Yu and others made a decision in a short period of time after some internal discussions.

It's time to break free from the Union's grip and leave Sil City to develop independently!

With the current number of members and resources of the Heavy Fleet, and the assistance provided by the Utu-Sirku Industrial Company and the Breakaway Explorers, it is now possible to occupy an abandoned outpost and restore it to its functions.

Then expand the territory in the surrounding waters, break the alliance's resource blockade, and achieve self-sufficiency.

As for where to go, the separation organization has long given a large number of high-quality options, including travel routes and future planning plans, which can be said to be readily available.

Combined with the current battle situation and the internal situation, considering all factors, Meng Lei's final choice of the first base target was still the Blake Shipwreck Cemetery, which had made him quite excited!

The site is located in the hinterland of channel 66580 and belongs to the waters of the Blake Strait.

Once upon a time, due to the existence of an important way to the sea area of the flat area at the end of the area, it had a unique geographical location, so it was once extremely prosperous.

However, with the subsequent large-scale collapse, coupled with the sudden decline of population and the strange tide disaster caused by space tides, the waterway was completely abandoned.

Although the area is slightly weak in terms of the distribution of sustainably exploited resources, there are not many sites worth excavating.

But in the past 100 years, the tens of thousands of shipwrecks that have been buried here and have not been salvaged and recovered are an extremely huge treasure for the current heavy fleet.

】

The key is that some wrecks have not been eroded by seawater for a long time and can continue to be used after being recycled.

This can undoubtedly save a lot of money when the initial stage of the business is struggling.

Therefore, after in-depth discussion and planning by the fleet's think tank, on a certain afternoon at the end of July, the first batch of transfer troops led by the Sea Locust and Guixu finally quietly bypassed the alliance's line of sight and secretly marched towards the 66580 channel in the north.

Due to the current size of the heavy fleet, if it is directly transferred collectively, there is a high probability that it will attract the intervention of the alliance.

Therefore, the whole process of transfer is divided into five stages, and the transfer is carried out one by one.

When the officials of Xi'er City finally sensed that something was wrong, the last group of evacuees had already joined Meng Lei and the others more than 100 kilometers away.

At this time, even if the alliance wanted to blockade it immediately, it was too late, because they did not know the purpose of the heavy fleet's trip at all, and sent the fleet to patrol around in a daze, which was not only unfavorable to the front-line battle, but also really unnecessary.

Since then, the Chongming Fleet has completely left the "protection" of the alien native government and started a journey of independent exploration in this vast abyss!

It is worth mentioning that the team that set off this time was not only the Chongming fleet.

Before setting sail, Chen Yu had secretly contacted the heads of several other Blue Star player fleets, and proposed future prospects for consolidating the alliance and developing together.

Of course, in order to narrow down the scope of knowledge, avoid having a guy who eats inside and outside to snitch.

This matter was only spread among a few well-connected allies, including the Deep Blue Fleet and the Winter Fleet, such as the Knights and the Yamato Fleet.

When he learned of the transfer plan of the Chongming fleet, Jiang Song, the commander-in-chief of the Deep Blue Fleet, immediately agreed and expressed his willingness to go along.

However, the bearded leader of the Winter Fleet, Dislav, showed hesitation in this matter, and seemed to have seen the outcome of the future annexation of the Winter Fleet from the current situation.

After all, in any respect, the fleets that were once not too far apart have now undergone earth-shaking changes in strength.

Among them, the Chongming fleet is the leader, and its size and power have long exceeded the sum of all the other fleets in Siel City!

Once the intervention of the Sil City Alliance government is gone, whether it is a good merger or a malicious annexation, the Heavy Fleet will be the dominant one sooner or later.

This is still unacceptable for the time being for Disslav, who is not willing to be subordinated to others, and for a very few other fleet leaders who have the same idea.

In this regard, Meng Lei and Chen Yu did not force it.

In the end, the large-scale transfer of Blue Star players initiated by the Chongming Fleet reached more than 8,900 participants!

It can be said that the entire 66671 channel finally passed the trial stage, and the Blue Star players who survived and arrived in Sil City basically walked nine times out of ten.

The originally extremely prosperous and lively Ciel City, after this incident, once again returned to the state before the Blue Star players crossed, and it instantly appeared extremely depressed, and its popularity dropped to a trough.

As soon as this incident was exposed, it immediately caused an uproar in the media throughout the Eastern Hemisphere.

Although it is said that due to the intervention of the Exploration Faction of the Separation Organization, similar incidents of Blue Star player transfers have been common in recent times.

With the help of the Explorers and private arms companies, many organizations began to gradually break away from the control of the alliance and go out to develop independently in a planned way.

But a mass shift of this magnitude like the city of Sil is the first of its kind in the world.

At a time when the war between the Radicals and the Alliance was heating up, the Radicals saw the opportunity to denounce the Coalition's dictatorship and call on the Blue Star players to break away from the Alliance and join the revolt in the democratic struggle.

For a time, the Alliance's prestige was once again hit hard, and its solid ruling regime became increasingly volatile and showed signs of fragmentation.

The significance of this matter is also far-reaching, but at this time, Meng Lei has no time to take care of the outside world.

From the city of Sil to the Blake Strait in the hinterland of the 66580 channel, the straight-line distance is more than 3,200 kilometers, and the whole journey is nearly 4,000 kilometers!

Even in times of calm weather, it is impossible to sail thousands of kilometers in the dangerous alien deep sea.

What's more, now that the space tide is in full swing, the threat of biological riots and alien relics is increasing geometrically more than before!

In addition, the number of people on this trip is too large, nearly 10,000 people!

The difficulty and risk of leading a fleet of 10,000 people across the wilderness are simply unimaginable, and they are far from being comparable to a possible land expedition.

Although this was expected for a long time, and full preparations were made before setting sail.

Food, energy, ammunition and maintenance resources are all greatly guaranteed to a certain extent.

Even the Utu-Sirku Company, after learning of the evacuation plan of the heavy fleet, specially sent a fleet to escort it, including one A-class battleship, two B-class cruisers, five C-class destroyers, and ten D-class frigates!

An escort fleet of this size is enough to launch a small-scale battle of annihilation of a stronghold.

But even with such abundant armed firepower, only in the first month of sailing, the fleet still suffered a lot of damage.

The biological riots caused by the spatial tides have caused too many aberrant sea monsters in the deep areas.

These special monsters infected by the aberration factor are not at all like the fear of ordinary sea monsters when facing a large fleet trip, they are bloodthirsty and tyrannical, only obeying the instinct of killing and devouring, and are not afraid of death to originate from endless attacks.

Probably only an Abyssal Kraken of the level of the Trampler, or a Kraken with the Spirit of the Abyssal Banshee, can make it retreat to some extent.

Therefore, along the way, battles have been going on almost all the time.

Fortunately, Meng Lei's golden finger played a crucial role in the voyage, and in most cases, he was able to lead the fleet to avoid the dense sea area of the strange tide in advance, which did not further aggravate the losses.

The whole process of this relocation operation took more than two months.

During this period, I experienced all kinds of bitterness and blood and tears.

When the fleet successfully arrived at the hinterland of Channel 66580, located in a large abandoned gathering place near the Brick Graveyard, the entire fleet set off from more than 8,000 players' initial wasteland boats, and only a little over 5,000 remained!

There were more than 3,000 submarines, buried in the eternal silence of the seabed and the cracks underground.

Fortunately, the casualties were not too many, and the size of the fleet did not shrink too much.

Excluding the escort force of the Utu-Sirku Company, the number of personnel who finally arrived safely at the target location remained at 8,372 people.

Compared to the overall base, it can be called a miracle!

Even Roger and the Explorators of the Separatist Organization were shocked and found it incredible after learning this data.

In their original plan assessment, the large-scale migration of the Chongming fleet, and the final number of survivors can reach two-thirds of the original number, which is already an excellent result.

Which Cheng thought, but Meng Lei created a miracle that no one expected.

Nearly 9,000 people hit the road, crossing 4,000 kilometers of barren sea in the dark, or in the period of space tidal blowouts, and finally more than 8,000 people reached the end point, with less than a tenth of the loss!

Such a result not only surprised the Separatist Explorers, but even the Utu-Silku Industrial Company once again raised its evaluation of the Chongming fleet by several notches, from a tentative object of assistance to the ranks of high-quality cooperative customers.

Such a transition usually takes a long observation period and a large number of transactions to complete.

However, it only took more than two months for the Chongming fleet to complete this move, and it has to be said that this large-scale migration incident made Utu-Sirku Industrial Company see the potential contained in the Chongming fleet, which is worth focusing on cultivating.

In addition, just when Meng Lei led the team across the ocean and rushed to a new starting point in life.

In the past two months, major events have also happened in the outside world.

First of all, after nearly half a year of fermentation, the war between the radicals of the separatist groups and the alliance has gradually spread to the whole world, and the two sides are fighting each other by relying on the main safe shipping lanes that are still in operation.

Although it is in the Western Hemisphere, where the situation is stable and relatively barren, you can still feel the smoke of gunpowder that pervades the world from the news reports of major media.

Among them, the southern seas of the Eastern Hemisphere, near the 66671 shipping lane, are the most intense.

The sea area is extremely vast, with the 66671 channel as the center, covering nearly 10,000 waterways arranged in an orderly manner around the periphery!

Including the destination of the heavy fleet's trip, the abandoned 66580 channel, it also belongs to the territory of the southern sea of the Eastern Hemisphere, but the warring parties did not focus on these abandoned channels.

Otherwise, the treasure of the shipwreck cemetery in the Blake Strait will also inevitably be affected by the war.

In the space of half a year, the alliance and the radicals of the separatist groups have not only pulled each other apart over the territory, but the control of various gathering places has repeatedly changed hands, and ordinary people have been miserable.

On the political front, the two sides are also racking their brains, using all the cards that have been hidden for many years, and the stable social structure is gradually falling apart.

And different voices began to appear within the alliance, feeling that if this war continues, the future of the alliance is worrying, no matter who will win the battle in the end, it will be a tragic ending, and the gradual loss of control of the Blue Star player group is also an important factor enough to affect the entire battle.

In view of the above, some people suggest that the two sides immediately cease fire and hold secret peace talks.

Even if you cede some of the benefits, you must end this battle as soon as possible, so as not to completely disorganize the structure of the alien society.

However, those who have such ideas are in the minority, and the proposal has not been approved by the Presidium of the First Sea Alliance.

Since then, different voices have emerged from within, and the fuse that led to the split of the alliance has finally been ignited, laying a deep hidden danger for the future chaos.

In addition, with the full-scale outbreak of the space tide and the fermentation of the previous large-scale smuggling incident, the footsteps of Blue Star players to explore the depths of the shallow waterway have become more and more frequent, in-depth and expanded.

Many seas that had not been explored and recorded by the Alliance before began to appear as Blue Star players.

In these places, there is no shortage of freshly unearthed alien ruins.

With half a year's adaptation period and experience, basically all Blue Star players are no longer unfamiliar with these ancient civilization relics buried in the long river of time, and they also know the excavation methods of many small ruins.

As a result, in the uncharted waters where the war between the alliance and the radicals of the separatist group has not been affected, a large-scale "tomb robbery" incident led by Blue Star players began to be staged around nearly 70,000 safe shipping lanes around the world.

For a while, a large number of alien ancient technology products were unearthed, and then through the auction and trading function of the player's initial wasteland boat, they were circulated in this channel.

What's more, they left the channel to which their submarine belonged, ran to other waterways, and used the single-line trading function of the initial wasteland reclamation boat to engage in "smuggling" by buying and selling, and reselling the things unearthed in this waterway to other waterways.

At this time, people suddenly discovered that the player's initial wasteland boat, which had been upgraded to the limit, could actually be upgraded again with the help of the ancient technological products unearthed in these ruins, and further strengthened the submarine from all aspects.

Such as submarine blueprints, ship-borne batteries, new energy power engines, etc......

And with the help of these products, the player's initial deforestation boat is far better than the submarines provided by the Alliance shipyards, both in terms of performance and other aspects!

As soon as this matter was exposed, it immediately triggered a wave of crazy "tomb robbery" by Blue Star players.

Since then, the dependence of the Blue Star player group on the alliance has been further weakened, and the blockade established by the alliance at the beginning of the alliance has finally been completely broken.

However, with the current ability of the Blue Star player group, the excavation of relics of various scales is still very limited, and the materials obtained from it are also very few.

If you want to further upgrade the initial wasteland boat according to the special blueprint unearthed in the ruins, not only the conditions are harsh, but the various relics resources to be used are also quite huge.

Even Meng Lei, who cooperated with the alliance to carry out a large-scale ruin excavation, did not immediately start upgrading the Guiru after obtaining the five blueprints.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that the materials are too difficult to obtain, and the alliance has divided most of the loot, and the leftovers left for him can't meet the upgrade requirements at all.

It can be seen from this that if you want to further upgrade the initial wasteland boat, how harsh the conditions are.

Because of this, even with a new direction, it will be difficult for the Blue Star player group to usher in a large-scale comprehensive upgrade in a short period of time.

Of course, for Meng Lei, he will not put the energy he has put into this area at present.

With the arrival of nearly 10,000 people one after another, under the guidance of the Chongming fleet, everyone began to plan and construct the construction of the base area in full swing.

According to the information provided by the Separatist Exploration Faction, Meng Lei finally selected the location of Base 1 in an abandoned gathering place in the middle of Channel 66580, near the Brick Shipwreck Cemetery.

The Gathering is second only to Sil City in size and more than twice as large as the Molten Outpost.

Although most of the facilities are old and outdated, the area is still functional, the damage is not too serious, and it is an abandoned place that was forced to evacuate due to a shortage of personnel, and the overall reconstruction project is relatively easy.

The key point is that there are shipyards, industrial areas, food processing plants, etc., and there is a complete industrial chain, so there is no need to rebuild the work area.

While saving money, it also provided valuable time for the initial development of the fleet.

In the days that followed,

When the war in the outside world continued to spread, lighting up this vast and vast deep-sea world like a spark of fire, the heavy fleet broke away from the vision of the alliance, completely disappeared from the pen of the media, and began to build its own corner of the world in secret.

During this period, the Utu-Sirku Industrial Company and the Separatist Explorers first established bilateral relations with Meng Lei.

In the early stages of construction, Utu-Sirku Industries provided the heavy fleet with a large amount of light and heavy industrial equipment, such as the T3 large deconstructor and the X2 heavy robotic arm, as well as the tugboat needed to salvage the wreck, and various fixed turrets for close defense.

Meng Lei promised that when the shipwreck salvage industry is on the right track, he will give priority to trade cooperation with the other party.

In fact, in terms of the overall value of the Burke shipwreck cemetery, Utu-Sirku Industries is not particularly concerned.

After all, the company is a leader in the military and technology industries, even if you look at the entire Eastern Hemisphere.

The reason why the person in charge of the nearby sea area will make such a strong effort to support the Chongqing Fleet is that the key lies in the overall potential of the Chongqing Fleet.

In only half a year after the Blue Star player group crossed, they were able to build a fleet with such a large number of members, and successfully broke away from the control of the Alliance, and even gained a foothold in the alien abyss under the influence of the spatial tidal explosion.

It's also an unprecedented feat across the globe!

Based on the current turbulent war situation in the alien society, it is completely foreseeable that in the near future, the rule of the alliance will usher in a major upheaval.

At that time, the heavy fleet will surely shine in the chaos.

As the first company to achieve cooperative relations with the Chongming Fleet, as long as there is no conflict in the middle, Utu-Sirku Industry will definitely make a lot of money in the future!

Not for a long time,

With the concerted efforts of nearly 10,000 people, the reconstruction of the base area was finally completed a month later.

This large deep-sea structure in the middle of the Blake Strait is once again radiant and rejuvenated.

When the dock is connected to the energy source, the spark light rising in the boundless darkness heralds a glorious recovery and symbolizes the arrival of a new era.

At this point, in this alien world wrapped in the ocean, the first gathering place completely created by Blue Star players was finally born.

And now it has a new name.

The city of the Far East!
