According to William's request, the space city was powered by the thrusters that could still be barely used, and slowly accelerated the space city, flying towards the nearest nebula, where it could at least slightly hinder the footsteps of the star ant clan, and it would be good to buy even a second more time for himself.

Everyone in the space city understands what kind of danger they are going to face, everyone wipes away their tears, temporarily puts down their sadness, and puts all their energy into the work in front of them, the whole space city is in a crazy mood, everyone is almost sleepless work, and strive to make the space city fly again a second earlier.

However, things are always not transferred according to people's wishes, it will follow its own laws, birth, old age, sickness and death, step by step.

The fugitive's spaceship is broken, but the hands and feet of the Star Ant Clan are good, they still maintain their usual speed, unhurried and steadily moving towards their goal, day by day, second by second, approaching the space city.

"Commander-in-chief, the restoration progress has been more than 97% complete, and if all goes well, the Hope will be able to fly into virtual space in twenty days. ”

William nodded, I have to say that the speed of repair of the Hope is really amazing, such a serious damage, with the desperate efforts of the people in Space City, it took nearly five years to basically repair, this is indeed a miracle.

However, this is not fast enough, according to the latest calculations, in five days, the Star Ant Clan will approach this star field, if the Star Ant Clan turns because of fear of the nebula, then it is expected that in about fifteen days, the vanguard of the Star Ant Clan will attack the cost of space, in the current state of the Space City. I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist the first wave of attacks from the Star Ant Clan.

Even if Space City is lucky enough to withstand this attack. And to fight for the opportunity to fly in virtual space. However, because it is too close to the ant nest, the attack of the Star Ant Clan will follow the Space City like a shadow, and in the future, the slightest mistake in the Space City may be caught up and swallowed by the Star Ant Clan.

Perhaps, it's time to start that filing, William thought silently.

"I know what to say, let's keep working hard. Success is not far off. ”

"But commander-in-chief, the movement of the Star Ant Clan does not seem to be very good, should we leave the Nebula first, if the Star Ant Clan takes a detour, it may be able to buy us an extra day. ”

William shook his head: "Moving now will only make the Star Ant Clan change the course in advance, even if you want to hide from them, you will have to wait until they are closer." ”

Smith shook his head: "I really don't know how the Dao Star Ant Clan found our location, if we know this reason, maybe we can really get rid of the Star Ant Clan's tracking." ”

William rarely showed a wry smile: "It's not easy to say, every time we face the Star Ant Clan." Always in a hurry to run away, where is the opportunity to study the star ant clan well. If I'm not mistaken, maybe the military of the First Republic in the past was some of the characteristics of the Dao Star Ant Clan, but unfortunately, they no longer exist, and it would be nice if the First Republic made these materials public as soon as possible!"

"I don't think it's necessarily a good thing, maybe, if this news is made public, it will cause the First Republic to fall apart directly, and if you can't concentrate the strength of the First Republic, it may be difficult to compete with the Star Ant Clan. ”

"Who knows, if the assumption and if we can't change the reality, let's work hard, we must first do our best to get through this difficulty, and the rest can only be said later. ”

"Yes!"

Three days passed in a hurry, and the Space City was about to complete the repair work and rush into the boundless universe again, but at this time, the terrifying shadow of the Star Ant Clan had completely enveloped the Space City.

The personnel in the command room have been working continuously for two days, and the movements of the Star Ant Clan have been closely monitored every second.

"The Star Ant Clan has changed course, deflecting to our right, as if preparing to bypass the nebula. ”

"Commander-in-chief, shall we fly away to the left?"

"Come in with me. ”

William didn't answer, but turned around and went into the break room, calling his deputy Smith in by the way.

When Smith closed the door, William turned to look at him solemnly, and said slowly but firmly: "Smith, as a deputy commander-in-chief, you are very competent. ”

"Commander-in-chief, what do you want to say?"

"Smith, we probably won't be able to escape this time"

"Commander-in-Chief"

"Listen to me, maybe, we can fight for another day or two, even if we can get away with it this time, but, the distance is so close, the star ant clan will stick to us like maggots attached to the bones, and in the future, our small negligence will be a catastrophe, Smith, no one can hold on like this. ”

"But"

"Smith, listen to me, it's an order!"

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief. ”

"I order you, immediately start the last step of the preparatory plan, lead the selected personnel to evacuate the space city, and immediately execute, from now on, your position as deputy commander-in-chief has been relieved, and I now officially appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the first fleet, please go to your fleet to take up your post. ”

Smith's eyes were a little red, his lips trembled but he didn't know what to say, under William's majestic and hopeful gaze, he finally straightened his chest as hard as William, and his gaze gradually became resolute: "Yes, Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, the commander has taken his leave!"

"Wait, good luck!"

"Thank you, thank you, and good luck!"

Smith commanded the spaceship to move away from Space City from above, and according to the advice of the technical officer, Smith chose to break away from the space city, but he did not rush to order to leave, but watched Space City from afar. He insisted that he was not reluctant to go, and of course, it was up to him to judge whether it was true or not.

In fact, everyone on the spaceship is the same, they all have relatives and friends who stay in the space city, everyone is actually reluctant to leave in their hearts, they all want to see how the space city gets rid of the pursuit of the star ant clan, of course, no one will think about the opposite result.

As for Smith's excuse for refusing William to let them leave immediately. It is the characteristic of wanting to strive for as many observations as possible of the star ant clan. Collect information about the Star Ant Clan. so that in the future we can find an effective way to deal with the Star Ant Clan.

The general's military life outside the country is not affected, and William has no choice but to let the spaceship follow Smith near Space City.

Soon, William had no time to pay attention to the unobedient Smith.

"Commander-in-chief, the nest of the Star Ant Clan has been discovered, and the distance is fifty units, and at the limit distance of optical and gravitational observation, the other party is approaching at high speed. The estimated duration of contact is twelve days. ”

"Move according to the predetermined and uniform course at a speed of 20%. ”

"Yes!"

"Order all combatants to enter the first level of alert from now on, the battle star ants have most likely been dispatched, pay attention to monitoring, and guard against the other party's sneak attack. ”

"Yes!"

"Commander-in-chief, do you want to urge the maintenance department?"

"No, they know what they have to do. ”

I'm afraid that the battle is inevitable, and for the fate of Space City, in fact, everyone has been mentally prepared for the worst and faced a powerful enemy. They don't even have time for fear and hesitation, all that's left is to fight!

Suddenly. A somewhat out of shape voice shouted.

"Gravitational anomaly, monitoring gravitational anomaly, huge gravitational anomaly, extremely fast development, is a black hole, is a black hole!"

Everyone was a little strange, what was the matter with this black hole that suddenly popped out? Could it be that even the black hole was eyeing the space city, and he was so hated? What was even more strange was that this companion was so excited? Could it be that he was not facing enough danger?

Seeing the strange eyes of everyone looking at him, this guy who was a little out of shape was not in the mood to explain, but said urgently with a look of surprise: "No, the gravitational anomaly occurred directly in front of the ant nest, far away from us, the black hole is about to encounter the ant nest, no, the ant nest is about to encounter the black hole, and this is a black hole that is developing very quickly, now, now we are saved!"

"What?

"Oh my God, it's not a dream, is it?

"See clearly, see clearly, I swear by the names of my wife and children, I see it clearly, I don't believe you come and see it yourself!"

William was stunned for a moment, and coughed vigorously: "Quiet, transfer the gravitational data to the projection screen in the center." ”

"Okay, right away!"

The gravitational data quickly turned to the large projection, and everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to the past, the guy was right, a huge gravitational trap was forming rapidly, and it happened to be in the direction of the ant nest, no, in the middle of the route of the ant nest, the distance should be quite close, this black hole appeared very strangely, as if it was waiting for the ant nest to arrive, and then suddenly appeared, like a lurking predatory beast, wanting to swallow the huge ant nest in one bite.

"Calculate the size of the black hole to see if it will affect our space city, change the direction of flight, use the No. 4 plan, and evacuate to the outside of the nebula. ”

"Yes! Evacuate to the Nebula and take Route 4!"

The flight controller gave a loud order, and there was a trace of excitement and joy in his voice, yes, everyone began to be happy in their hearts, it seems that good luck has begun to take care of the Hope, after the Hope hit the black hole, the Star Ant Clan actually crashed directly into the black hole, which is really happy news.

It's just that I don't know if this black hole can completely swallow the nest of the Star Ant Clan, even if it can't, the black hole will definitely be able to entangle and delay the pursuit of the Star Ant Clan, and the Hope is really hopeful this time.

Judging from the data of the gravitational detector, this black hole is too cute, and its scale is not small, no matter how you look at it, it is much stronger than the gravitational field formed by the ant nest, if you think so, the mass of this black hole is greater than the ant nest, then the possibility of the ant nest wanting to get rid of this black hole is very low.

The thousand pounds of boulders pressed on top of their heads seemed to have disappeared, and the people in the command room couldn't help but feel relaxed, and at the same time, in their hearts, they were also feeling more and more intense pleasure, as well as more and more intense hope, hoping that this black hole must swallow the ant nest and help their relatives, friends and compatriots avenge it.

"Everyone, the crisis is not far away, the black hole has undoubtedly saved us, but according to the habits of the star ants, the battle star ants may have been sent out, we are still ready to fight, as for the fate of the ant nest, after we repel the attack of the battle star ants, we will naturally know the way!"

"Yes, defend the Hope to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

William stood up, staring at the projection screen with bright eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly curled: "Please work hard, I hope to live to see the fate of this nest of star ants, in this life, maybe it's just such an opportunity, you won't let me down!" (To be continued......)
