Chapter 152 Fall
The special operations team enters the shipyard's warehouse.
As soon as possible, he left the freight passage door leading to the outside of the warehouse and hid in the corner of the warehouse.
Without being discovered by any afterglow, he began to slowly explore the situation in the warehouse.
It can only be said that the giant shipyard was designed by humans.
As a result, even in the warehouse of such an important building, there are still many places that have to be designed according to human design ideas, otherwise they cannot be used normally.
Therefore, the situation in the Afterglow Warehouse at this time is similar to the warehouse that several members of the Special Operations Team have seen many times.
Have a large number of boxes and containers for stacking goods.
At the same time, there are many robots, transport vehicles and fixed logistics equipment that classify and transport materials or semi-finished products stored in warehouses.
If you didn't know it in advance, at first glance you would think it was in a human warehouse.
This environment made several people present feel at ease.
Such a relatively familiar environment is better than entering a completely unfamiliar warehouse environment suitable for Afterglow.
But it’s not certain whether Yuhui’s own warehouse is open.
Maybe there are only a few large and small freight exports that only goods can enter and exit, and various internal logistics facilities for adjusting goods.
There are simply no wide passages for large vehicles to pass through in this design.
While confirming the general environment of the warehouse, the team also remotely hacked into several surveillance systems that might cover their next steps.
However, in addition to surveillance, there are also more than a dozen cargo robots that prevent them from continuing to penetrate into the core area of Yuhui.
They have been working, and judging from the precision of the work, there must be Yuhui individuals controlling it in real time, and they cannot be hacked into casually.
And these robots are not like human robots that have limited vision for easy control.
Afterglow has been responsible for control from the beginning, and it is their instinct to watch the image signals transmitted back by multiple visual sensors at the same time.
Therefore, each robot is equivalent to a nearly 360-degree surveillance system with no blind spots.
But fortunately, the large amount of goods accumulated here helped a lot, allowing the warehouse to have quite a few bunkers to cover the special operations team.
Although the robot has almost no blind spots in its field of vision, its ability to see through is still non-existent.
After carefully avoiding these robots with the help of surveillance, several members of the special operations team also successfully reached the other end of the warehouse.
It's a pity that they didn't find an external or exposed data cable during this process.
Although the data cable was indeed found only in the shallow layer of the wall, the movement of breaking the wall would definitely trigger Yuhui's pursuit.
So they could only install some special explosives in the warehouse that could be detonated manually later.
Although he left the warehouse through a logistics exit with only equipment and no Afterglow robot.
Head to the factory area next to the warehouse.
This is where they have just confirmed that they must go if they want to continue to penetrate into the core area of Afterglow.
Only here can you get in touch with Yuhui's spaceship later.
Although the terrain in the factory area was designed so that Yuhui could build the projects they needed on his own, so the entire factory was in the Yuhui factory style that Chen Ming had seen before.
Compact, narrow, and composed of purely mechanical devices.
However, such an environment is simpler for the special operations team.
Because there are no various robots in Yuhui here, only various production equipment and assembly lines, as well as equipment to monitor the assembly lines.
As long as the surveillance is hacked, they can walk over with swagger.
And because it is close to the core area that is least susceptible to intrusion, there are not many defense equipment here.
Even if there is, they still have the internal data code provided by Chen Ming, the "insider".
Defense equipment that is not controlled in real time by Afterglow, but is left to the defense system to run on its own, has no threat at all to them.
The factory area is also very easy to pass directly.
Further outside is the most important finished product transportation area of the entire maintenance plant.
Various repaired equipment need to be transported here, and various repaired spacecrafts must also take off and land here.
These logistics spacecraft or repaired spacecraft can go directly to various departments in the dock through the empty space in the innermost part of the giant dock that can accommodate capital ships.
The purpose of the special operations team's trip, the gravity magnetic sensors, are also distributed around this ship position.
But they were in no hurry to leave the factory.
Because there are still a large number of afterglow individuals there.
An open logistics distribution center does not have as much cargo as a bunker like the warehouse they just passed.
At the same time, there is the problem that independent afterglow individuals cannot be hacked.
So for the special operations team, it is the final stage.
They retreated a little and managed to find a little space in the narrow factory area.
Exploration equipment has been installed here to accurately confirm the location of the gravity magnetic sensor.
At the same time, they also used equipment to confirm the location of the maintenance spacecraft that they had not found when they just passed through the factory area.
They are going to the repair shop to find a spacecraft that can control the afterglow.
Engineering ships must be overhauled after a long period of work. Ships that have had accidents during the project need to be repaired. Spaceships that have been damaged in the battle outside also need to be repaired.
Therefore, damaged spaceships that need to be repaired are definitely the most indispensable thing in the repair shop.
And the afterglow cores in these spaceships undergoing repairs will definitely be directly replaced on other spacecrafts.
There is a high probability that these spacecraft left in the repair shop will not have cores installed and can be completely controlled.
This is their chance.
At the same time, it is also the assistance that enables them to destroy the gravity magnetic resistor with the highest efficiency.
If the special operations team chooses to use weapons to destroy the gravity magnetic detector in person, it will be much more difficult than using a spacecraft.
The team quickly scanned and got the results they needed.
The equipment was disassembled again, gathered together, and found a way to the ship maintenance area in the factory.
The ship maintenance area is also similar to the equipment maintenance area they came here.
There are only maintenance equipment and spaceships to be repaired, but no afterglow.
At this time, the whole process from the team entering the factory area to now.
The electronic technical team member who had been looking around finally saw what he had been looking for, the distribution box of the repair shop.
There must be a data cable inside.
He immediately signaled to the team members, and then said to Chen Ming: "Mr. Chen, we have found the data cable here."
Chen Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "Well... not for the time being."
At this time, his mental power has been exhausted, and he is relying on his will to forcibly support himself. He has even consumed the upper limit of his mental power to maintain the existence of consciousness.
It is impossible to waste excess mental energy on this module where the repair shop does not have the ability to manufacture capital ships.
And his operation has also entered the final stage like the special operations team. The modules outside are only part of the way to complete the collection of new star blueprints.
It is impossible to say that something extraneous will happen at this time.
But Chen Ming covered his head and thought again.
No matter what, these are modules in the core area that his abilities have never been able to affect.
Although the core modules within Afterglow are most likely separated from each other, if you can control one, it might be useful in the future.
So he finally said: "You can leave the core here first, and I will make my own judgment later."
The team leader didn't waste any time and cooperated with the electronic technicians to dismantle the distribution box and leave the core inside.
Then he continued to turn his head and stare at the spaceships that were almost completed.
It can be said that their previous tasks have been unprecedentedly smooth, and now is no exception.
With the internal data code given by Chen Ming, it can only be said to be easy to hack into these ships that are not controlled by Yuhui individuals at all.
In order to ensure subsequent actions, they directly hacked ten spacecraft going up.
It's not that I don't want to continue to be hacked, but there are only so many spaceships that can be repaired in a short period of time.
Several members of the team also have experience in piloting small spacecraft, and they can all control Yuhui's spacecraft.
He quickly debugged the spacecraft and adapted to the control method.
You only need to wait for the spacecraft's repair process to reach the final step, and be sent to the finished product transportation area outside, where the core will be installed and sent to different modules.
But at this time, the electronic technical team member suddenly frowned and said: "There is a problem."
"We can only remotely control Yuhui's spaceship using signals. As long as the distance is slightly further, the spacecraft may be directly disconnected, and someone has to stay here to control the spacecraft."
When the expressions of several other team members changed slightly, the expression on his face suddenly felt relieved, and he took the initiative to say: "I'll stay, no one except me can control two spacecrafts alone."
"I have the best chance of destroying the gravity magnetic detector if I stay here."
The team members looked at each other for a few seconds, and the captain took the lead and said: "Okay, I'll leave it to you."
The expressions on their faces were very calm, and there was no unnecessary nonsense.
We evacuated to the junction of the work area and the warehouse area first, ready to wait for the results here.
If the electronic technicians fail, they still have time to return and try a second wave.
Or, when the gravity magnetic detector is turned off by Yuhui as Chen Ming said before, the new star is not destroyed.
They can also go to the area where the simulated gravity device is located through the logistics channel to look for other opportunities.
At this time, four repaired spaceships happened to be sent from the factory area to the transportation area outside.
Parked at the edge of a pile of other spaceships waiting for transportation, it looked unremarkable.
The electronic technical team member took a deep breath.
Activated the engines of two engineering ships without afterglow cores installed in them.
And it started immediately, flying to the only area without gravity inside the giant shipyard.
Yu Hui, who was present at the scene, didn't even notice the situation of the two engineering ships at the first time, thinking it was normal ship logistics.
Until the afterglow individuals who controlled this core area discovered that the model of the spacecraft that was going to enter the logistics transportation did not match the two that had just taken off, and the afterglow individuals that were supposed to be installed had not had time to install them.
Only then did Yuhui realize something was wrong. And Yuhui, who controlled this module, immediately thought that this was Chen Ming's action and was highly vigilant.
They quickly confirmed the origin of the two spacecraft and immediately notified them to leave, closing all channels connected to the factory.
Prepare to implement physical controls on the factory.
But it's too late to control anything.
The two spacecraft controlled by the electronic technical team members have entered the ship's position, under the gaze of the new star that is quietly suspended in a gravity-free environment.
They each approached the position of the gravity magnet.
Without any fancy movements, the two spaceships just collided straight into each other.
In the two fireballs that erupted inside the ship's position, the gravity magnetic arrester was successfully destroyed.
Magnetism and gravity are distorted by the effects of the exploding gravity magnet at the end.
Starting from the side destroyed by the special operations team, the gravity magnets that constructed the anti-gravity magnetic field began to break one by one like light bulbs on a line.
The scope of influence of the twisted magnetism and gravity is still gradually expanding, twisting the surrounding high-strength ship walls directly into a metal mess.
While the influence of the gravity and magnetic detector expands.
Xinxing, who had been staying safe and sound in the ship's position, finally lost its stable weightless environment.
The front left corner of it was the first to be affected by gravity.
A tilt occurred.
Originally, there were a large number of ships doing emergency start-up work while building the new star class. At the same time, there were many auxiliary fixing devices and logistics devices for transporting goods that were also installed on the new star star ship.
All of these things were completely destroyed in the sudden tilt of the new star.
Countless pieces of scrap metal mixed with electric sparks exploded inside the ship, causing countless losses in a short period of time.
But that's not the point.
The entire new star is about to fall inside the giant shipyard.
If the new star is destroyed, the losses of the others will be at most a fraction of the new star.
At this time, the electronic technical team members who were observing the situation through the remaining two spaceships that had not yet started had an excited look on their faces.
But at this moment, Nova Star's engine was suddenly started.
A bright flame emerged from the bottom of the ship, with the engine nozzle outputting at its maximum output.
While burning the giant shipyard itself, it also dragged down the falling star.
Although the Nova as a whole did not directly hit the giant shipyard during the fall.
But due to the destruction sequence of the gravity-magnetic detector, the corner of it that tilted down in advance did not have time to be dragged up by the engine.
It hit the ground of the giant shipyard.
No sound can be heard in a vacuum environment.
The violent shaking of the giant shipyard being destroyed was even visible to the naked eye.
Starting from the point where the corner of the new star hit the giant shipyard, several circular cracks visible to the naked eye spread directly.
A large number of shipyard frame structures were destroyed, and countless metal fragments exploded in all directions during the impact. After a few seconds, they fell to the ground again due to the imitation gravity device, expanding the scope of the damage again.
This was fatal damage to the giant dock structure.
Xinxingxing also suffered serious damage from the machine based on the most basic theory of "forces are reciprocal."
There was a crack running through the ship at the root of the left front section.
From the bottom to the top, from the outermost layer of armor to the deepest core, everything suffered damage as fatal as a giant shipyard in this impact.
But if you just look at the results, the new star is not destroyed.
And the impact of the gravity distortion caused by the gravity magnetic attenuator completely disappeared.
The new star finally landed smoothly at the bottom of the giant shipyard affected by gravity.
At some point, the alarm inside the giant shipyard was also sounded.
Yu Hui had just confirmed the origin of the two engineering ships that had turned into pieces, quickly located the location of the factory where the special operations team was located, and implemented a blockade on it.
However, none of their individuals dared to approach. Instead, they only sent some remotely controlled robots to prepare to break into the factory.
The reason is also very simple. They have not found any trace of the special operations team yet.
Still think that all this is Chen Ming's handiwork.
They want to find out which individual is controlled by Chen Ming.
Of course, the electronic technical team members who stayed here didn't know this.
He only knew that the remaining engineering ships were of no use, and it seemed that it was too late for him to retreat.
He shook the gun in his hand and considered whether to throw it away or fight to the death.
Just then.
Chen Ming suddenly sighed at this time.
Let the gamma-level afterglow individual left here connect to that data line.
He exerted influence on the entire module division and directly controlled the gates of the factory area and transportation area with the highest authority.
This is not because Chen Ming suddenly became kind-hearted.
But just a few minutes ago, before the special operations team took action, he had successfully controlled all other module divisions that might have blueprints by relying on the modules he controlled.
But when he reached this step, he found that the blueprint for the new star was still missing.
Chen Ming did a little analysis based on the existing blueprint.
The last part of the blueprint he was missing was the blueprint for the new-level main control system, and it also included the blueprint for the part of the system connected to the Alpha-level Afterglow individual.
The last and most critical piece of the puzzle can only be found in the core area.
Chen Ming's mind was a little unclear because of exhaustion, so he didn't think of this level.
As a result, such a problem occurred at a critical moment.
Could it be possible that it really failed at the last moment?
Chen Ming did not give up because he still had one last chance.
He waited until the special operations team took action.
Then, under his control, all the Yuhui controlled by him started to move.
Controlling anything with combat capability and action, headed to the core area.
As long as there is an afterglow that can touch the data line in the core area, then his plan can still succeed.
Under normal circumstances, the rebellion of more than ten or twenty modules within the entire giant shipyard with hundreds of module divisions would be just a minor problem.
But the premise is that these modules are randomly distributed.
But now, Chen Ming specifically selects and controls those modules that have ship production capabilities and are close to the core area.
These important modules on the edge of the core area all broke out in rebellion at the same time, which must be devastating to the core inside.
The same is true for these Yuhui who are executing Chen Ming's orders.
But no matter how much Chen Ming would lose in the process, he would not hesitate for a moment.
After all, so far, he has only regarded the afterglows he personally controlled as his.
All other losses are ignored.
Only in this way can the final opportunity be in his hands.
All the afterglows have started to move, and all the controllable machinery, factory equipment, industrial transport vehicles, etc., everything that can move is moving in the logistics channel.
Some are close to the core area, while others blow up the passage from the outside inward to block the arrival of more external support.
This is the final moment.
The young electronic technical team member who had given up hope suddenly became excited. He once again clenched the gun in his hand and shouted uncontrollably: "Mr. Chen!"
Chen Ming said without further ado: "Continue the mission, follow your teammates, and change the gravity-simulating device."
"Yes!"
The electronic technical team members quickly took action, quickly shuttled through the factory under Chen Ming's guidance, and reunited with the team members who had set off early.
At this time, the robots that Yuhui came out of the core area and did not hit the core of Afterhui, nor were they controlled by Chen Ming, had destroyed the door blocked by Chen Ming.
Entered the factory.
At Chen Ming's reminder, the members of the special operations team activated the bombs they had previously installed here.
Countless blazing white metal jets exploded from inside the factory. After destroying all the robots entering the factory and destroying the engineering equipment and stored materials, they gradually cooled down.
The entire factory was almost melted into a solid block of iron.
Chen Ming wanted to cut off the trail.
But Yu Hui believed that Chen Ming had voluntarily given up the possibility of continuing to expand his psychic influence.
So they quickly started self-examination work, trying to confirm how many Afterglow individuals in the entire giant shipyard were affected by Chen Ming.
They immediately discovered the afterglow individuals that were rapidly approaching the core area.
And quickly began to concentrate armed forces to deal with it.
On the contrary, for the few members of the special operations team who had left the factory, not a single Afterglow cared about them, and not a single Afterglow confirmed their existence.
They had planned their route in advance and quickly arrived at the location of the gravity-simulating device.
On the way, because Yu Hui's attention was not on them at all, there was no obstruction in any sense.
But when they arrived, they found that this module had been completely blocked due to the spread of Chen Ming's psychic energy within the giant shipyard.
And since there is no device for producing ships inside this module, Chen Ming did not waste his mental energy to control it before.
As long as this closed door can be broken open.
Find the location of the simulated gravity device and change the direction of gravity.
The new star will surely fall again.
