Chapter 669: Choice

In the vastness of the void.

A large space fleet continues to sail at high speed in the direction of the solar system.

It has been 52 Earth hours since the Hexapus discovered the anomalies of the solar system, as well as the space fleet of the solar system.

But the expeditionary fleet of the Serapus still did not stop advancing, and did not even change direction.

In fact, it's not that these six-clawed people are arrogant, it's not that they're impatient, it's that they really can't stop at this time.

The reason is very simple.

As long as the expeditionary fleet of the Serapus changes direction or stops sailing, the solar system will definitely detect the anomaly.

The information brought by the fleet intelligence officer Kama not only made these Hexapons know that there are civilizations in the solar system, but also discovered their existence, and sent three space fleets over.

But anyone whose brain has not entered the water knows that the space fleet on the other side of the solar system is not good.

Go back to the first communication meeting.

The head of the fleet, Dee, was the first to come to his senses, and it emitted a low ultrasound:

"Guys, we've been exposed, it's very sad news, at the current rate of the other party, about 452 dams (146 Earth years), they will meet us."

The other Hexaps recovered from their panic slightly, but judging by the viscous fluid that kept coming out of their bodies, it was clear that they were only superficially calm.

Dee looked at the other colleagues, and then it made a surprise decision, and its muffled ultrasound rang out in the Hearing Tower of All (the hearing organ of the Serapus):

"Now we can't stop moving forward."

"What?"

"Why?"

The other Hexapons were startled, and for a moment they couldn't understand Dee's thoughts.

Of course, Dee knew what he was thinking, and it was a surprise to the captains of these fleets.

It explained in an extremely heavy ultrasound: "Don't you understand? If we change course at this time, stop moving forward, and return to our home planet, will the other party notice our anomaly? ”

Suddenly, these fleet commanders were stunned for a moment, and then they also reacted.

Fleet Strategist Dick's ultrasound was unusually sharp: "Damn...... We can't really change the direction of sailing! ”

Dee continued heavily, "If we make an anomaly now, the civilization in the target system will definitely detect the anomaly, and then it is very likely that they will do everything in their power to hunt us down. ”

"Commander Dee, can we only go and die?" One of the fleet commanders asked reluctantly.

For everyone's unwillingness, Di'e doesn't know, but what can it do now?

Knowing that time was short, Diere said in a low ultrasound:

"We have to make a choice, if we continue to sail to the target system, the other side may not be aware of the anomaly of our fleet, and will not take too drastic measures, so that the home planet will have a chance to secretly send a group of people away, so that our civilization can continue."

Strategist Dike waved his tentacles: "Commander Dizi, since the enemy can discover our fleet and the home planet, how can you be sure that the other party will not discover the fugitive fleet of the home planet?" ”

"It's very simple, we can take advantage of a dead end."

Dick reacted suddenly: "Using the straight line between the target galaxy and the parent star?" ”

"That's right, although I'm not sure how advanced the enemy's technology is, it certainly won't outrun us too much, as long as the fugitive fleet sails in the opposite direction of a straight line, the home planet can cover the trajectory of the fugitive fleet."

However, Dirk, as a strategist, still felt that something was wrong after listening to Die's method.

Dee asked, "Dirk, what do you think of this method?" ”

After thinking for a moment, Dick cautiously expressed his concerns: "There is still a problem, if you want to sail in the opposite direction, the spaceship's thrusters must face the target galaxy, even if there is a parent star cover, there is a high probability that it will be exposed." ”

"Is that so?" Dee also fell into deep thought.

In fact, its method is also in a hurry, and it has not been systematically planned, so there are naturally some loopholes.

But others understand that this is the best way to do it at this stage.

As for this expeditionary fleet, in fact, all the commanders of the fleet gave up struggling, after all, the enemy's speed was three times that of his own, and it was useless to escape.

Moreover, the time for Homo sapiens' space fleet to arrive at the six-clawed home planet will only take about two hundred Earth years.

It's not that these six-clawed people don't know their own situation.

After the brutal civil war, coupled with the long-term professional identity confinement, the technological development of the Hexapons was very slow, and some of the technology was even lost due to the war.

The resources of the home planet of the six-clawed people themselves are very expensive.

They did not grasp the confidence to catch up with the enemy within the deadline of two hundred Earth years.

As a result, fleeing became the only option for the Serapus.

There is no way, this is the sorrow of the weak.

This is also the law of survival between the civilizations of the universe.

Dee has decided to abandon the Expeditionary Fleet's hopes of survival and continue its march towards the solar system to attract the invading enemy fleet.

Just when they were silent.

A thought crossed Dick's mind that maybe he could do that...... It asked the intelligence officer, Kama, "Kama, when did the enemy's fleet depart?" ”

Ka Mo checked the data for a moment, and then replied, "If the speed of the enemy fleet is based on the speed of the enemy fleet at this time, the time it takes for the other fleet to leave that galaxy is not much different from the time we leave our home planet. ”

"Is that so?"

Dee looked at it and asked for this information, and was a little curious: "Dirk, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

"Confirm something, now that I've been sure, it's very likely that it was our previous civil war that caught the attention of the other side."

Hearing this judgment, Dee was very embarrassed, because this civil war was started by the rebel army, and it was the six-clawed man from the rebel army.

Although the other Six-Clawed people from the Supreme Court secretly cursed the rebel army as a scourge in their hearts, they also knew at this time that the current internal strife was just self-defeating.

Dick said helplessly: "It's not a matter of civil war now, but this information is very important. ”

"Intelligence on the Civil War?" Kama's tentacles swayed, as if wondering what information was in them.

Dick interrupted the others' thoughts: "No need to guess, the reason why I want to confirm the departure time of the enemy's fleet is to confirm how the other side discovered us, and now I can basically be sure that it is a nuclear explosion in the civil war." ”

"What's the use of that?" Dee was puzzled.

"That's it! What is the use of a nuclear burst of intense light waves, which are discovered by the enemy? ”

The other Serapus were all confused by Dick's information.
