Half an hour later, after the fleet passed through the wormhole, after the turbulent energy tide, the battleship radar immediately scanned the starry sky 10,000 kilometers away, and 2 pirate cruisers and 17 pirate gunboats were chasing and killing 1 destroyer and 5 frigates that crossed first.

"The fleet is ready for battle!"

Li Qing looked at the communication screen sent by the fleet in front of him, and immediately ordered the fleet to prepare for battle.

The captain of the destroyer under temporary command did not confront the pirates head-on, but fought and retreated, flying kites faster than the fleet of wild pirates, and had slipped for almost an hour and a half.

As soon as the fleet's communication was connected, Li Qing immediately ordered the forward fleet to return to join him, and the headquarters fleet quickly stepped forward to respond.

Although these two pirate cruisers are said to be cruisers, they are only destroyer-converted cruisers, and they are not comparable to him in terms of quantity or quality.

As the two sides approached, the hulls of the five destroyers flew diagonally, allowing one of the guns to be pointed in front and start accumulating energy.

Twenty-one frigates left five frigates in front, and the remaining seventeen were divided into two groups, eight on the left and nine on the right.

The fifth-generation weapon itself has a longer range, and has a 20% range bonus for the Psyker, and the cannon that has been stored early has already fired in advance while the enemy ship is still accelerating towards it.

A series of fires and six dazzling beams exploded, directly across the void and hit a pirate modified cruiser, the terrifying kinetic energy and neutron plume directly tore through the energy shield of the pirate cruiser, and the aftermath tore through the alloy armor, and the fragments of the broken alloy armor flew one after another.

The five destroyers have a total of 12 L-slot guns, six of which are advanced kinetic railguns and the other six are neutron launchers, which can emit powerful neutron plumes.

A total of 60 M medium weapon slots, half of which are equipped with 5th generation electromagnetic guns and the other half 30 are equipped with 5th generation laser cannons.

Twelve L-slot guns were fired together, nearly tearing the converted pirate cruiser's armor apart.

Fortunately, it has been modified and strengthened, and if it is a destroyer, the armor can be torn apart directly according to this firepower.

With a round of artillery bombardment, they also came within range of the two converted pirate cruisers, and with a blinding light, a total of fourteen blinding lasers pierced the void, while eight missiles flew over with a long tail flame.

With a flash of white light, fourteen lasers hit Destroyer No. 3 fiercely, and the huge force tore apart Destroyer No. 3's shield on the spot, leaving fourteen molten holes in the armor that were half a meter deep.

Eight missiles came first, but were intercepted halfway by a barrage of fire tongues from the P-slot close defense system launched by four frigates, and were destroyed halfway.

"Destroyer No. 3 retreats, all of them, move forward!"

The firing range of the main gun of the L slot is as high as 1,500 kilometers, and the firing range of the M medium slot weapon is about 500 kilometers, although the opponent is a cruiser, but it is only a modification of a destroyer, and the firepower is not comparable to that of a real cruiser.

Soon the two sides entered the range of medium weapons, and Li Qing's side used the 20% range bonus of the Psionic to open fire in advance.

Li Qing also didn't know how the opponent's battleship was modified, and he was afraid of insufficient firepower, so a total of 60 guns all set fire to the modified cruiser that had broken its shield.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the thirty metal shells and thirty lasers hit the target at the same time, only to see an earth-shattering explosion, and the converted cruiser was torn apart by the terrifying power of the concentrated fire, turning into a raging explosion on the spot.

One was sunk by concentrated fire, the pressure dropped sharply, and the remaining pirate cruiser was no longer firepower enough to pose a threat to the destroyer in a short time.

On the other side, sixteen frigates were surrounding seventeen pirate gunboats, and the two sides were entangled in a very small area and scuffled.

Frigates and pirate gunboats are both small warships of the same specification, equipped with S-small slot weapons, whether it is laser cannons, machine guns, or point defense systems, the firing range is very close, which causes most of the frigate engagements to be close-range and fast-moving mobile warfare.

When he destroyed a cruiser, the frigate on the other side, which was fully equipped with fifth-generation technology, had the upper hand in the face of pirate gunboats.

At this point, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief, no accident this battle was won, and not a single ship would be lost.

As he expected, seven minutes later, the second pirate cruiser was sunk, and five destroyers immediately joined the frigate battlefield and destroyed the pirate gunboats that had fallen to the disadvantage one by one.

As soon as the battle ended, Li Qing found that his command skills and experience had improved a lot, and his basic naval command skills had been upgraded to level five.

Basic Naval Command Skill LV5: +25% speed, +15% weapon rate, +10% attack damage, +450 command ship capacity.

With the addition of the Psyker's skill bonus, the fleet under his command has +45% speed, +20% range, +15% weapon rate of fire, and +10% attack damage.

"It's getting stronger."

Li Qing smacked his lips and closed the properties panel with satisfaction.

Salvaging the battlefield, Li Qing was surprised to find that in addition to a pile of wreckage of battleships, there was also a second-generation laser cannon manufacturing drawing that could be used 25 times, as well as two data chips, one green and one white.

The second-generation laser ** paper is 350,000 sheets/time, and it can be used 25 times is 8.75 million, making a small profit.

After the two data chips were delivered to him, he used the decoder to extract the data, and obtained a white skill chip, as well as a green signal chip.

The whiteboard skill chip contains the corvette operation skill, which increases the experience related to the frigate operation skill by 1000 points after use.

However, this thing is only useful for the captain, not much for a commander like him.

Although he also learned the skill of operating a frigate, but it was only used for emergency purposes before, and now he not only does not need to operate it, but it is estimated that he will not have the opportunity to open it again in the future, so naturally he does not need to waste this thing, he can only train his subordinates.

But his subordinates are all whiteboard captains, and there is no value in cultivating them at all, so this thing can only be stored first, and then it can only be used if there is a chance to recruit frigate captains with a green name or above a blue name.

As for the signal chip, this thing will give you a coordinate when it is decoded, and then go to find the coordinate location.

The result of the signal chip is uncertain, it may be just a treasure left by the ancients at the coordinate location, or it may be a relic, an ancient laboratory, an ancient shipwreck, or even just an ordinary box, etc.

If it is a buried treasure, this act is called treasure digging.

In the case of ancient ruins or laboratories, this act is called gravedigging.

Generally speaking, the final harvest can be determined by the grade of the signal chip, and the whiteboard naturally does not need to expect good things, if it is a purple signal chip, there will inevitably be top good things.

The green chip is a little higher than the white board, but it is one level higher, and there is a probability that something of good value will come out.

Li Qing used the star map to check the signal coordinates, and found that the signal coordinates were not very far from here, anyway, he was now looking for a suitable galaxy to establish a base, so he decided to go over and have a look.

However, after walking a few galaxies according to the coordinates of the star map, Li Qing found a problem, the interfering electrons contained in the nebula in the nearby star field were rising rapidly, and not only the ship's sensors were seriously affected, but the jump engine was also strongly affected.

After crossing about ten galaxies, he found that only the fifth-generation jump engine could jump, and the distance and accuracy of the jump were greatly affected.

"Could it be that this is also the edge of the separation interference belt?"

Looking at the star map, the coordinates on the signal chip are only five hops away from here, and after a moment's hesitation, he decided to move on.

Drilling into the next galaxy, I immediately felt that the interference in the nebula had strengthened again, and the sensor was suppressed to only one-third of the effect, and the fifth-generation jump engine was already in a state of ineffectiveness, and it was estimated that the next galaxy would strike directly when it entered the depths.

"It's coming...."

It's a pity to give up now, but Li Qing also set a standard for himself and continue to move forward, but if he finds that the wormhole is starting to become unstable, he will retreat, and he can't take risks.

Then three galaxies flew forward in one breath, and the jump engine had already struck directly and could not be used, and even the curvature and sub-light speed were greatly affected.

But the wormhole is relatively stable, according to the information given by the Jialan team, the real isolation interference zone is that the wormhole is disturbed and becomes unstable, so it cannot pass through, and now the wormhole can still be used, but the interference is serious, indicating that it should be at the edge of the isolation interference zone, and it is estimated that a few galaxies will officially enter the isolation interference zone in the future.

Fortunately, the coordinates on the signal chip are nearby, and they should be on the edge of the isolated interference zone.

Half a day later, the fleet came to the edge of the galaxy, and the large force stopped, and one expelled and the five guards went headlong into the wormhole.

An hour and a half later, the vanguard fleet sent him a response, receiving the communication, and looking at the player fleet and wreckage that was moored not far from the wormhole shown in the communication screen, including two cruisers, eight destroyers, and forty frigates, and the wreckage all over the ground.

Silent for a while, he ordered in the Fleet Channel:

"Destroyers No. 3, Four, and Five and frigates No. 1 to No. 10 entered first, and the remaining battleships entered later."

Half an hour later, the wormhole shuttle ended, and as soon as he came out, Li Qing checked the situation for the first time, and was relieved to find that there was no conflict, and at the same time the communication lit up, and when he clicked on it, he saw that an unfamiliar communication came in, revealing a young man in a dark green military uniform, and said:

"I'm the commander of the fleet not far from you, you can call me Thornbird."

"Jialan Team Li Qing!"

"I'm here to guide a signal chip to dig a grave."

"What a coincidence, I also accidentally broke out a signal chip, and I also came to dig treasure."

"That's a coincidence."

"It's a bit of a coincidence."

Li Qing checked the coordinates of the star map, and the position of the signal chip was located below this galaxy, he sent the coordinates over, and said:

"We shouldn't be at the same coordinates, right?"

The thorny bird was obviously relieved, and also sent a coordinate:

"It's in the same galaxy, but it's not the same location."

"Shall we each dig our own one?"

"Okay."

The two said goodbye peacefully, and a fleet headed to the left of the system, while Li Qing led the fleet downward.

This direction does not refer to the horizontal plane of each player's ship, but to the entire new banking system.

As we all know, the new galaxy is also a huge flat disk with four spiral arms, with this flat disk as the midline, and then with four spiral arms in the four directions of southeast, north, west, and south.

Based on the Silver Heart, the spiral arm where the United Empire of Humanity is located is the Immortal Spiral Arm, and the direction is set to the north of the Silver Plate.

Of course, this southeast, northwest, and northwest refers to the directional coordinates of the entire galaxy, and this set must not be used in the galaxy in normal times.

In the interior of the star system, the upper and lower horizontal planes are still based on the Milky Way, but the southeast and northwest are anchored by themselves, or by the star in the center of the galaxy.

What he is using now is the southeast, northwest, and east, which uses itself as an anchor.

The concentration of nebulae in this galaxy has actually affected the naked eye's viewing angle, and the image transmitted by the sensor shows that the starry sky outside the battleship is covered with a faint layer of fog, and if you zoom in on the picture, you can find that this fog is composed of countless fine particles.

If a scientific instrument takes a closer look, it will reveal that there are tiny electronic connections between these particles.

In fact, this environment itself already has a certain scientific value, and the outpost has always sent scientific research ships to conduct scientific expeditions in the galaxy at the edge of the isolated interference zone, and I don't know if any valuable information has been investigated.

There are also wild monsters in this galaxy, and they are also affected by the nebula, and the sensors are suppressed even more ruthlessly than him, during which he has been in close contact with the wild monster fleet twice, and has already entered the radar detection range, and he will definitely be discovered in other galaxies, but he is not found here at all.

In addition to this, there seems to be more than one type of monster in this galaxy, in addition to the common pirate monster, there is also a monster with a warship that is significantly different from the shape of the pirate gunship.

The level of technology is not much different from that of a pirate gunship, but the size of the fleet is much larger than that of a pirate.

In addition to the scattered gunboats, the pirate fleet is generally less than five destroyers with cruisers and twenty or thirty gunboats, and there are no scattered monsters in this unknown beast, most of them are fleets of scale, and the fleet size is very large, at least four or five real cruisers, a dozen destroyers, seventy or eighty frigates, and the total number is about one hundred.

When encountering this kind of fleet, Li Qing directly turned around and avoided it.

Walking and stopping all the way, I finally came to the location of the coordinates of the signal chip, and saw a common barren planet floating alone in the starry sky in front of me, and the orbit around the planet was full of broken warship wreckage, and a small fleet of wild monsters, including a cruiser, three destroyers, and ten frigates, wandered back and forth in the wreckage.

"Ancient battlefields?"

Li Qing was surprised with a hint of surprise.

"How can there be an ancient battlefield here?"

Judging from the wreckage of the battleship, it contains a large number of large battleships, although the wreckage of the flagship has not been found, but from the wreckage of so many battleships, it can be seen that the scale of the ancient battle is definitely very large.

After a few pauses in the fleet, Li Qing ordered the fleet to scan around the planet from afar.

However, as soon as he circled the planet to the other side, he saw that another orbital starry sky that had been obscured by the planet before was covered with battleship wreckage, including several battleship wrecks that were larger than a complete battleship.

"Shhh

What shocked him even more was that behind the battleship's grave curtain, there was a broken satellite.
