Chapter 54 Hulk
“For a possibility, rush towards an uncertain target...”
Soshiyang sighed.
"Your Majesty, we cannot afford even a single defeat now. The Chapter has never been so dangerous."
"I'm sure there is something important there."
Brother Said still insisted on his opinion, and Soshyan persuaded him not to move, so he drew his Holy Flame Sword.
"Sir, have you heard of this sword? I brought it back from the orbital station of Ma'kande 2. According to Priest Loken, it was entrusted to him by a certain Chapter Master. "Made by the instructor."
Wuwei took two steps forward and seemed to be observing the sword, then its body shook as if it was nodding.
“Yes, I know him.”
What Brother Said said next surprised Soshyan.
"I commissioned the priest to make it."
"You? Haven't you been sleeping?"
"It was not me who came forward."
Brother Said Stretching out his arm, Soshiyang then handed over the Sheng Yan Sword knowingly. The other party clamped the hilt of the sword and looked at it carefully for a while, then praised:
"Not bad, not bad, I saw that priest correctly. Rather than serving gears and machinery, he is actually more suitable to be a swordsmith, but it is a pity that his skills are destined to be buried.”
After speaking, he returned the sword to Soshyan.
“Gray Marrow needs to extract a lot of heat energy. This sword allows you to use it for a longer time. However, you still have to be careful and don’t let your emotions influence your use of Gray Marrow. You have to control it yourself and learn to use reason. Go and mobilize it.”
Soshyan nodded and sheathed his sword.
At this time, the communicator in his neck armor suddenly sounded.
"Chapter Commander, you have to come and see this."
Hearing Loken's voice, Soshyan immediately turned and walked towards the door of the armory, with Brother Seid following closely behind.
When they appeared on the bridge, it was already a mess.
Hearing the footsteps, Loken moved the console and said without looking back:
"Chapter Commander, I was just setting the auspicious device to scan for trail particles. "
When he turned around and saw the towering divine fearlessness behind Soshyan, the technical priest paused.
Then when he came to his senses, he found that he needed to hesitate for a moment to find the right words.
"...that is, the engine trace, so that we can find out whether there are other ships passing by in front."
"So?"
Soshiyan asked Said, when he and Brother Said walked onto the command podium, Lothar nodded to Wuwei and stepped aside.
"Lots of Readings,"
Loken's voice was heard above the murmurs of the other officers, and at the same time a large number of auspicious readings were transmitted to the display screen.
"Two thousand kilometers away from the port side. I think the distance is probably close. There is a ship, or we scanned two ships."
"Two?"
Soshyan frowned at Loken.
"We only have two ships coming in, including the Glorious Saber."
Loken turned pale under his direct gaze.
"Target image has been established."
A voice sounded, and everyone turned to the imager. The huge oval screen was slowly filled with static, unexplainable images.
Through the overflowing stray light, people cannot distinguish clear physical shapes, just like looking through clouds and fog.
Loken and the technicians tried their best to eliminate most of the useless things. The bridge was so quiet that there was only sporadic static sound, and then he focused the image on the large ship drifting in the colorful storm. The ship was a wreck, scattered across thousands of kilometers of pain-filled space.
Such a scene is not common in subspace. Ships often get lost in the waves of subspace for various reasons.
A considerable number of them have not been destroyed, but still maintain their decayed, ancient appearance, and may appear at any time, anywhere, at any time.
When they appear in the physical space, they become a vicious gift.
This kind of ship is generally called a "hulk ship".
"Is there a problem?"
Soshiyang stared at the outline of the ruined ship, feeling a little uneasy for some reason.
"Nothing, my lord, just a ghost reading on the sensor, a faint...signal of life?"
"Any more information."
" I'm scanning remotely...Based on thermal decay and material analysis, it seems that it was destroyed many years ago, at least...thousands of years?"
At this time, the image of the imaging device gradually became clearer. It was a military ship.
The hull of the ship is dotted with lights that appear and disappear. The thick armor is as pitted as the surface of a meteorite. A few mottled black paint remains under the macro cannon. The place where the flight hangar once was has become There was an ugly scar, and the weathered double-headed eagle logo was inlaid on the keel of the bow. Judging from the size, it was at least a cruiser, and larger than the Starfire.
At this time, Loken raised his hand to push off his hood, wiped the sweat from the back of his head, and said in confusion and surprise:
"Omsenia, I can't believe it. ...I don’t even know a ship of this level! There is no ship of this type in the keel identification code! Is this an alien warship? It doesn’t look like it..."
At this time, he remained silent. Brother Said suddenly spoke.
"This is a massacre-class armored cruiser."
"Uh... distinguished elder, I have never heard of this type of cruiser."
Loken asked modestly, and then Fearless gave him the answer.
“This is a cruiser used during the Great Expedition. It may have been discontinued a long time ago. It’s not surprising that you don’t know.”
Hearing this, Soshiyang’s eyes were cold. Back on the ship again, as the Spark moved, the abandoned battleship became more burly.
Large pieces of debris could be seen suspended near his shell, and unnatural flames curled in the gaps between its armor, burning in some form despite the vacuum outside.
It seems to have frozen the moment of its fall.
"Sir, what's even more troublesome is that it is approaching us at an extremely fast speed and is expected to collide with us in half an hour!"
Suddenly, Loken said A bad news.
Soshiyang frowned.
"Can't we get away?"
"According to the pre-analysis of the navigation trajectory, the Spark cannot get away with its current speed alone... How can a ruined ship be so fast!?"
" Can we leave the subspace? "
"Currently we don't have a suitable anchor point. If we jump out rashly, we may plunge into the edge of a star or an asteroid belt. "
At this time, Brother Said's voice sounded in Soshyan's communicator.
"Soshiyang, this is a big trouble. Some force is pushing it towards us. Only you can solve it."
Soshiyang immediately understood what Brother Said meant. There is a subspace force pushing it towards us. hinder their progress.
“Can it be destroyed from a long distance?”
“The Carnage-class armor is extremely strong. It is difficult to destroy it in a short time with only the firepower of the Spark and the Glory Saber. Before it hit us."
Soshiyang closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds. When he opened his eyes, he gave an order that surprised everyone.
"Prepare the shuttle, let's get aboard and see what's going on."
