Chapter 701 The Battleship Jumps Repeatedly
The starry sky is bright, and the stars in the universe are like pearls. This is one of the most beautiful descriptions of the universe, but in this dark corner of the galaxy there is no There were no so-called stars, as if all the stars were swallowed up in the darkness at the edge of the Milky Way.
The fleet is sailing without the company of stars, only endless loneliness, and among these stars, they cannot use subspace navigation to accelerate their sailing speed, because the fleet does not have subspace here. The navigation map of the waterway, so the current navigation of the fleet can only rely on the curvature engines on the fleet. There are no supporting facilities on the imperial warships, so all the imperial warships in the fleet can only be concentrated into the sun. The interior of the fortress, let the Sun Fortress sail with them.
Although the sailing speed of the warp engine can reach super-light speed, that speed is still too slow compared to the sailing speed of the subspace engine. This is why the Human Federation prefers to use the subspace engine despite the risks. , the Milky Way is too big, and space is still too empty. If you keep using the curvature engine to sail, although it can reach super-light speed, it is still too slow. In the process of interstellar navigation, it will still consume several It takes a generation of lives to reach the destination.
However, the fleet’s current navigation goal is not that far. All the worlds in this star area are marked. Although there is no navigation map of the subspace channel, using the curvature engine is the fastest. It only takes a few months to reach the destination world, and during this voyage, Wang Ming also deliberately investigated some conditions in their destination world.
This is a world labeled as a civilized world in the Human Federation world classification. According to the records of the Human Federation, there are several large companies that were once the Human Federation stationed on this world. At the same time, it has a dedicated Federation fleet for protection. This world is designed by the Human Federation to serve as a portal world operated by the large companies in this star region, and is also the headquarters of these large companies in this star region.
However, after thousands of years of change, it is unknown whether those large companies still exist. However, judging from the worlds that were conquered during the Great Crusade, if those large companies still exist , it is estimated that it will become extremely deformed in the tens of thousands of years in this world. After all, the remaining human civilization on the worlds recovered during the Great Crusade has proven this.
However, no matter how deformed the human civilization in this world is, as long as they are still human beings, the empire will definitely take care of it. The 21st Legion will recover this world, even if it requires this The world has to pay some price, and it must be recovered. This is just the pain before they enter the human collective.
A month is neither long nor short. The fleet is sailing in the void like this. The curvature engine is constantly twisting the space around the ship, pushing the ship at super-light speed. Heading towards that world, at the same time, some small things are happening in the world at their destination.
There is no so-called war here. The situation in this world is already very good compared to the worlds they have seen before. There are no foreign invasions or heretics in this world. On the contrary, the humans in this world can barely live and work in peace and contentment, at least they do not need to be like the worlds in the human empire in the galaxy, where endless wars break out every day.
Although there are not so many wars in this world, the human beings in this world do not live a life of starvation, but they do not live a good life. The composition of this world is similar to that of the foundry worlds of the Mechanicus, and is even better than The world of the Mechanicus is even more extreme. The people in this world are also produced. In the eyes of the rulers of this world, the humans in this world are their commodities.
But compared to those planetary governors who are really not human beings, they actually look like humans. At least they didn't starve the humans in this world to death, right? There is even a complete people's livelihood system in this world, and no one can starve to death, but this can cause a large number of planetary governors of the imperial world to be shot 100 times.
It’s just that although the rulers in this world can be said to be somewhat human-like, if Wang Ming were here, their evaluation could only be said to be more anthropomorphic. After all, in the empire After the completion of the reform plan, the livelihood of a large number of people in the empire world can be considered to be far behind this world when compared to this world.
The little things that are happening in this world now are due to something similar to an archaeological team in this world, which dug out something similar to the ancient city in this world. The battleship thing made the ruler of this world very happy. At the same time, it also used the resources of the entire world to repair this thing. For the human species, it is instinctive to expand towards the stars. They yearn for the starry sky. , yearning to travel across the entire galaxy.
With the help of the entire industrial system in this world, this dilapidated federal warship was finally repaired by them. At least it can pass through the atmosphere and go to space. This makes this world The rulers above and the humans in this world are very happy. After all, they have been away from the Milky Way for too long, and now they finally have the opportunity to re-enter the Galaxy. How can they not be happy?
However, even if all the industrial capabilities in this world provide for the repair of this battleship, the subspace engines and curvature engines on this battleship still trouble the humans in this world, and they do not understand what should be done. To repair these things, the subspace engine and the curvature engine were once among the top technologies of the Federation. To conquer these things, you must need a complete federal industrial system and the professionals who support the system.
This world does not have the supporting professionals and industrial system, so the work of repairing the subspace engine and the curvature engine can only be put on hold, but this is for those in this world As far as humans are concerned, and for the rulers of this world, it is not difficult to repair the subspace engine and curvature engine on this battleship.
It’s just that he doesn’t have the resources to repair these technologies now, but this is not a problem for him. He still has a long time, and he is not in a hurry for that moment after tens of thousands of years. .
A few months have passed by in a hurry. For the Milky Way, this time is like an unnoticed breath or an unnoticed blink. The starry sky is bright and the Milky Way is still flowing. , time will not stop because of the existence of any race, it keeps moving forward, and beside it are the races in the galaxy. Time has no meaning to the galaxy.
After several months passed, the fleet finally arrived in this galaxy. The fleet immediately turned on the galaxy-level detection radar. First, they had to confirm that there was something in this galaxy. There are no Federation battleships. This is a very important thing. If there are Federation battleships in this galaxy, it proves that the human beings in this world have not degenerated to the point where they cannot even leave their own planet. If not, then the situation in this world is probably the same as the several worlds we have encountered before. It's just that the scanned picture of this galaxy made Wang Ming and all the travelers on the fleet feel a little confused. There were federal battleships in this galaxy, but not entirely. The signal of the federal battleship was at their destination. The orbit of the Earth's planet and the ground flicker like a flickering light bulb.
"What is this? Someone is driving a battleship and jumping repeatedly across the planet's orbit and surface?"
Hu Jin looked at the scanned image displayed on the holographic projection screen in front of him. He asked Wang Ming beside him with a confused look on his face, and Wang Ming could not answer Hu Jin's question. After all, it was a bit abnormal to drive a battleship repeatedly across the planet's surface and orbit. No one Would you do such a thing? Apart from wasting fuel, Wang Ming couldn't think of anything else going on. Otherwise, this warship was newly manufactured and was testing some other performance.
Other than this possibility, Wang Ming could not think of any reasonable possibility. After all, fuel for battleships also costs money. Who has such a mine? Driving a warship and jumping horizontally repeatedly and taking off against the resistance of the atmosphere consumes a lot of fuel.
After two days of reconnaissance, the fleet has initially determined the situation in this galaxy. In this galaxy, except for the battleship that is still jumping repeatedly on the surface of the planet and above the orbit of the planet, There will be no spacecraft left, not even the most primitive chemical spacecraft.
There is no longer the worry of having a fleet in this world, and the fleet is parked directly in the orbit of this world. According to previous investigations, there are basically no orbital defense facilities in this world, except for a few that may be rocket launch platforms. Apart from the place and the warship that was still jumping repeatedly, there was nothing that could threaten the fleet at all, and it was not even possible to touch the fleet at all.
The fleet is currently parked at a height that chemical rockets cannot fly no matter how high they fly. Even if humans in this world discover the existence of the fleet, they will not be able to have any impact on the fleet.
When the fleet arrived in the orbit of this world, the humans in this world immediately discovered the changes in the sky. After all, the huge size of the fleet was enough to block the stars in this world. The light it brought was as if a world the size of the moon suddenly appeared above this world, almost turning the land under the area where the fleet was parked into darkness.
What is the standard for judging the development level of a civilization? It is of course the cities and facilities that this civilization built on its own world. After being parked on the orbit of this world, the humans below them The city fell directly into darkness, and they finally saw the scale of human development in this world. City lights like stars lit up below them, illuminating almost all the places they covered.
The human civilization in this world is very developed. At least those humans in this world have done a very good job in urbanizing this world. Although it is not as majestic in size as the imperial hive, it has already urbanized those Cities cover every corner of the world, and the whole world is like an urban planet. Every place you see is a human city.
The human beings in this world have a very high degree of civilization preservation, so the possibility of communicating with them is very high. After confirming this, Wang Ming couldn't wait to find the administrative center of this world. Then It is a huge building that looks like a metal pyramid. It stands at the South Pole of this world. All government affairs in this world are handled in this huge building. This is obtained through orbital reconnaissance. news.
After determining the administrative center of this world, Wang Ming directly took a group of time-travelers there. Just like in the Great Crusade, he showed them his orthodox identity of the Human Federation, and then included them in the empire. Under the management system, let them return to the human collective.
It’s just that while Wang Ming is heading to the administrative center of this world, the ruler of this world has actually discovered Wang Ming’s actions. He is now constantly calculating what will happen if those If humans discover his identity, what will they do to him?
Those things back then did great harm to the Human Federation, and his identity is also very sensitive to the Human Federation. He is not one of those traitors. He tried his best to survive the chaos. Although he has already had many ideas about his ending, if he is treated as a traitor by the officers of the Human Federation, this will be too desperate for him now. .
He has spent thousands of years understanding human emotions, and now his emotional reactions are the same as those of a normal human being. He does not want to be treated as a traitor. This is a humiliation for him. He is not a traitor. , he is always loyal to the Human Federation and to mankind.
But if those federal officers treated him as a traitor, then he would have no resistance. He was loyal to mankind, it was that simple, even if he had emotions.
"Loyalty is sometimes not such a beautiful thing..."
After a lot of calculations, the ruler of this world finally said these words helplessly. He He does not want to rebel against the Federation, but he wants to initiate negotiations with the Federation through something, so that at least the lives of humans in this world can be improved after the arrival of the Federation. For the survival of humans in this world and the development of this world, his management model for this world It's too extreme. Now that the Human Federation is back, let them at least improve it.
