Chapter 2 Three Seconds of Confidence
In Stars, there are three states of spacecraft flight.
One is normal flight. The speed generally depends on the spacecraft. It can be as low as hundreds of thousands of kilometers or as fast as hundreds of thousands of kilometers. At a speed of 100,000 kilometers per hour, one second is nearly 30 kilometers.
The second type is sublight speed, which is generally used for long-distance driving. Generally, it will enter sublight speed after accelerating to a certain point without being attacked for a period of time. In this state, the speed can reach hundreds of millions of kilometers or even hundreds of millions of kilometers per hour. Generally, the more advanced the jump engine, the faster it will be, and the maximum speed is infinitely close to the speed of light.
In the sub-light speed state, the spacecraft is at a different level from the meteorite dust, spaceships, etc. floating in space in the normal universe, and cannot interact with each other.
The third type is hyperspace jump. After a certain period of preparation, you directly cross a distance of light years and appear in another galaxy.
It is hundreds of millions of kilometers away from the wormhole from the mining asteroid belt. It would have to fly at a normal speed, and of course it would have to be at sub-light speed.
However, sub-light speed has to stop when it is a certain distance away from the wormhole. In the sub-light speed state, it is impossible to pass through special units such as wormholes and star gates.
The mining ship left the sub-light speed in space more than one million kilometers away from the wormhole. Levi immediately started the radar scan. After a circle, no other spacecraft was found within the electromagnetic radar's maximum scanning range of 1,000 kilometers.
It was impossible to see the star gate from such a long distance. Levi manipulated the light screen a few times and called his friend Lao Ye and left a message asking.
After less than ten seconds, Lao Ye replied:
"Two hours ago, the new instructors of the Endless Legion, Lao Meicai and Shining Shining, led the new team to sweep through that area. There should be some brushes now, but not much. If you are careful, it should be fine."
"That's OK, thanks!"
"You're welcome. By the way, you said before that you would switch to a combat player after completing this order. Have you ever thought about which legion to join?"
Li Wei thought for a moment and replied:
"With this idea, there are several alternatives for the time being, one is Alpha, one is the Emerald Legion, and the other is the Endless Legion."
"What, do you have any recommendations?"
"It's true. I have a cooperative relationship with the Endless Legion. I think you are pretty good. Are you interested in joining the Endless Legion?"
"Endless Legion."
Levi rubbed his chin and thought for a moment.
This legion has good strength and a good reputation. He does not reject it, but.
He asked:
"How are the military combatants of the Endless Legion treated?"
Lao Ye responded immediately:
"Combatants need to be assessed, divided into ordinary and elite. The ordinary ones will receive 10 million start-up capital, a military-standard Haiyan frigate, a mining ship, a transport ship, optional core modules, a green skill chip, and a set of tutorials for newcomers , instructors are available to answer questions 24 hours a day, and there are instructors who will teach you about wild monsters, anomalies, grave digging and archeology, all included!”
“Where are the elites?”
"Fifty million starting capital, three level three petrel frigates, three mining ships, three transport ships, optional core modules, a blue skill chip, a set of internal tutorials for newbies, exclusive tutorials for elite combatants, all included. ”
"Requires assessment"
"Of course it needs to be assessed. This is a regular army, and not everyone can be accepted."
"Okay!"
Levi responded:
"It just so happens that I'm going to Endless Star City to sell the mine. I'll find out more about it then."
"Well, by the way, I have some frigate blueprints here, of all models, and some high-end accessories. Do you want them?"
Lao Ye explained:
"The regular legion has good benefits, is safe and stable, a lot of people want to join, and the competition is very high. The assessment requires your own battleship, and the configuration is generally not good. Don't you make more preparations?"
Li Weiwei said:
"Aren't you an intelligence agent? When did you change your career to a businessman?"
Lao Ye smiled and said:
"Isn't this going to expand our business? We are testing the waters now."
"That's too unfortunate. I ordered several frigates before and are already building them. Now I don't have much money left."
"It's okay, we'll work together next time."
"No problem, I'll look for you next time I want to buy a boat."
"OK, good luck!"
Turning off the communication channel, Levi smiled, activated the armed mining ship and dragged the transport ship towards the wormhole.
From time to time, some pirate ships with weak combat effectiveness will be refreshed on the routes of major galaxies, or some criminal group fleets or large pirate fleets with slightly stronger combat effectiveness will be refreshed. Occasionally, some rebel fleets with extremely strong combat effectiveness will be refreshed. It is very unsafe on the road. Always pay attention to anything the radar scans, and be ready to run away if there is any movement.
These are collectively called wild monsters, and they are divided into ten levels according to their strength, with the weakest level being the weakest and the strongest level being ten.
Ordinary wild monsters have no bounty, and they won't explode any good things. At most, they drop some wreckage that can be sold for money, or broken down into alloys.
Only high-level wild monsters will explode some valuable things, but this value is relative. Compared with the gains from abnormalities, it is far behind. Advanced players are more keen on farming abnormalities.
This galaxy is at the junction of the forces of the Endless Legion and the Cosmic Material Recycling Organization. From time to time, patrol fleets pass by to clean up.
The spaceship quickly arrived near the wormhole. Indeed, there were not many pirate ships in the surrounding space. The few that were sporadicly refreshed were also very far apart. He deliberately made a turn and headed towards the wormhole, and started the hyperspace engine from a distance to prepare for acceleration. .
Just when the spacecraft was about to enter the wormhole, he suddenly discovered a suspicious-looking black shadow in the far space on the other side of the wormhole that his radar could not detect. As he accelerated closer to the wormhole, it seemed to start to move. .
"Pirate player?"
Having been robbed many times, Li Wei had gained experience in robberies. He immediately became vigilant, stretched out his right index finger and put it between his eyebrows and silently recited:
"God's perspective!"
The next second, his consciousness quickly flew out of the mining ship, rising at a speed exceeding the speed of light. In an instant, it covered an entire astronomical unit range centered on himself, which is 150 million kilometers.
Talent: Ultimate Matrix Will (Secret): One's own will communicates with the high-dimensional ultimate matrix, overlooking the low dimensions through the high dimensions, overlooking the ultra-complex battlefield from the perspective of God, and the unparalleled computing power can instantly calculate millions of response plans, from which Choose the best one.
Effect (Naval Command): God's perspective 1 astronomical unit range.
This is a powerful talent given to Levi after opening the universe in his hand. It is called the Ultimate Matrix Will, but he prefers to call it God's Perspective.
Just like the name, after it is turned on, his consciousness communicates with the final matrix in the universe in his palm, so that he can truly know everything within an astronomical unit from the perspective of God.
Through God's perspective, Levi clearly saw that the suspicious black shadow behind the wormhole was indeed a pirate gunboat lurking in the far void. At the same time, he also found out the attributes of this gunboat:
Pirate Gunship (Artillery Core-Modified): A common frigate for pirates.
Properties:
Basic hull: 1200
Basic Armor: 800
Basic shield: 800
Base speed: 130000 km/h
Basic dodge: 45%
Correction:
Default tactic: swarming tactic.
Fleet slot size: 1.
Ship Block: Core.
Artillery Core (Default)
Components: energy core, super-light components, thrusters, detectors, combat computers.
Guard Core:
Weapon slots: M1, S3.
Universal slots: S4, A1.
Available tactics: swarming tactics, sentry tactics.
Available modules: dagger module, artillery module.
This is a modified pirate gunboat. Its basic attributes are about 20%-30% stronger than the standard pirate gunboat. It is equipped with stronger weapons and equipment, which is much stronger than those wild monster pirate gunboats refreshed on the waterway.
But
"Fuck!"
When Levi saw the spray paint on the surface of the gunboat, he immediately recognized the origin of the pirate gunboat and became furious.
In reality, this group of people hang out in the Starlight Community where Li Wei lives, and are active near the Xilan Province in the game. In fact, most of the players in the Starlight Community and the Pearl River Delta metropolitan area are active in the Zutar sector where the Xilan Province is located. In various star regions, they have united to form a large force, called the Brotherhood in reality and the Plague Nation in the game. They have their members in the empire camp, major pirate camps, and even the rebel camp.
Many low-level people in Starlight Community are forced by them to serve them in the game. Although Li Wei is exempt from being forced as a civilian, in reality he needs to pay a certain protection fee every month and is extorted from time to time. and robbery.
Yes, they had robbed Levi more than once before.
It wasn't a lot, but he was unhappy.
It's just that he doesn't have the ability to resist yet, and he has to surrender even if he doesn't want to.
He has never told others about his situation in the game. He is just afraid of being targeted. Being a civilian can protect him from forced exploitation, but if he lets them know that he has a lot of money in the game, there is a high probability that he will attract people. Greedy eyes.
They are like a group of greedy jackals and vampires, constantly sucking the blood of the lower class people. Through exploitation, they now have their own star castle and regular fleet in the Heeran Province, and they are already a powerful force. Li Wei heard that They seem to have plans to establish a regular army.
This kind of cancer must not be allowed to rise. Levi has already planned to make them look good when he has the ability in the future.
Quickly retracting his God's perspective, he felt a strong spiritual emptiness in just a second, as if he had stayed up late for several days and nights, which was very uncomfortable.
Executing this skill with a mortal body consumes energy. With his current mental strength, he can't withstand it for up to two seconds. Remember, he died suddenly in three seconds after activating it for the first time without experience.
"It's a pity that psychic energy can only be activated by obtaining the first-level authority of Palm Universe."
Levi clicked his tongue and suppressed his headache to wait. Now the spacecraft has entered the wormhole and cannot be controlled.
A stable wormhole is a passage connecting two different galaxies. It is one of the most important means of transportation among the stars. Nothing can be done when passing through the wormhole. If there is a violent movement, such as starting the engine, it will easily be thrown into the subspace. , that will undoubtedly lead to death.
When the mining ship came out of the wormhole, Levi quickly started the engine and escaped at full speed.
Fortunately, no wild monsters were seen at the wormhole entrance of this galaxy for the time being, and he escaped smoothly and drove deep into the starry sky. At the same time, he started the hyperspace engine and prepared to enter sub-light speed.
"Damn it, I will kill you all when my ship is built."
Recalling that a year ago when he was a newcomer, he was squatted twice by them, and the two shiploads of mines he spent nearly four months digging were all robbed, Li Wei became furious.
He had just walked less than six minutes when the energy in the wormhole overflowed, and a pirate gunship flew out, adjusted an angle and chased directly in the direction he left.
The speed of the gunboat was much faster than the mining ship, and nearly times faster than the cargo ship loaded with cargo. Soon the radar discovered the shadow of the Levi cargo ship.
"The boy can run pretty well."
Scorpion looked at the radar screen displayed on the console and smiled. The silver-white alloy mechanical left hand took out a delicate-looking silver box from the side, opened a row of silver-shell cigars inside, and skillfully picked out one and held it in his mouth. The mechanical index and middle finger transformed into scissors to cut off the cigar head. The index finger flexibly changed back to its original shape. The top spurted out blue flames to light the fire. He took a deep breath and was intoxicated. He opened a group chat and someone immediately asked:
"Have you caught up?"
"We're catching up. We're flying towards the space station in the center of the galaxy. We'll catch up in less than five minutes."
"Don't let him enter the sub-light speed state while hanging. We will be here soon."
"Don't worry, sublight speed front acceleration takes at least fifteen minutes. It's only been six or seven minutes since we came out. He won't be able to make it in time."
He took a long drag on his cigarette and smiled confidently.
However, the confidence on his face only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing. He looked down at the light screen with a surprised look on his face. His left mechanical eye quickly moved to check the radar scanning screen displayed on the light screen. He dropped the cigarette in his mouth without even realizing it.
Two ships that had been clearly visible on the radar just seconds ago disappeared after circling a slightly larger meteorite on the edge of a planet's ring.
"Nima, what the hell?"
He was puzzled to understand how two such large ships could suddenly disappear. There was neither a stargate nor a meteorite belt nearby. Not even a larger meteorite could be found in a radius of millions of kilometers. It would take fifteen seconds to reach sublight speed. Minutes of forward acceleration, cargo ships and transport ships generally do not have the luxury of being equipped with advanced hyperspace engines.
After eliminating all possible ways, Scorpion fell into a state of confusion.
"We've arrived, where are the people?"
"Scorpion?"
"???"(End of this chapter)
