Chapter 236 Risk Travel
The narrow cabin on the navigation column cannot accommodate all the navigators on the ship, but Soshyan's requirements are very clear, and they cannot make any mistakes.
The chief navigator and his trainee navigator each surveyed a subspace channel, looking for a route that would allow the "Glory Saber" to quickly jump to the physical universe to get rid of the haunting battleship behind it. .
All other preparations have been completed, and all personnel on the ship are ready. The process of jumping back to the real universe may be accompanied by huge risks and bring devastating consequences.
The Chief Navigator also warned his kin that this process could have harmful effects on their psychic powers.
"I have discovered something."
One of his cousins suddenly said:
"A very clear turbulence, to the left of the bow."
Hearing the news , the chief navigator then looked with his God-given extraordinary gaze in the direction indicated by his cousin, trying to discover what had caught his attention.
Then he saw three subspace ocean currents, one strong and two weak. They approached each other at a steep angle and converged to form a three-dimensional vortex. After entangled with each other, A new ocean current formed, flowing in the path of the warship, crossing a calm and waveless subspace plane, and then slowly gathering into a nearby anchor point.
"Captain Hodges, please transfer primary navigation control to my command station."
The chief navigator's fingers rubbed the buzzing communicator, then turned around without hesitation, avoiding He opened the worried looks in the eyes of his trainee navigators.
A few seconds later, Captain Hodges agreed to his request. The screen under his left hand began to light up, and a piece of program code quickly scrolled across the light green glass screen.
The chief navigator typed the command to crash the battleship into the center of the warp turbulence and muttered to himself in a low voice.
“Blessed by the light of the Star Torch.”
There is no sound in the subspace, and there is no sea pressure under real tides or inertial gravity sufficient to pull metal and reinforced concrete.
Even so, the chief navigator could still sense that the Geller force field was reorganizing - that was because the ship was under heavy pressure from invisible forces.
Soon, the frigate was pushed from one subspace energy vortex to another.
“Huh?”
The chief navigator suddenly felt uncomfortable, his steps were unsteady, and his world was spinning.
The spiritual energy that originally surrounded him lost control, and with him as the center, they slammed together from two directions, just like an invisible beast closing its huge upper and lower jaws and swallowing him.
"Ugh..."
The youngest among the trainee navigators, he knelt down heavily beside the chief navigator, gasping in pain, and emptied the contents of his stomach. Pour it all down.
The chief navigator ignored it and concentrated on typing another command.
The ship plunged downwards in the subspace energy within a few seconds, and then suddenly rose up, and the waves piercing the subspace rushed out, like a small gravel, as the giant whale broke through the sea surface The waves see the light of day again.
He sat cross-legged on the futon, clenched his teeth, forced himself to stare at the separated subspace in front of him and the bizarre sights, and made final adjustments to the route.
Afterwards, he raised the Geller force field to the highest level, then pushed his companion away and collapsed on the only chair in the cabin that was still intact.
"Captain, we are already on a new route..."
The chief navigator panted heavily, took a break, calmed down, and began to look for another ship. The emitted subspace energy signature.
Soon, the opponent's whereabouts were discovered, and he was actually in front of the "Glory Saber".
Apparently, they did not realize that the positions of hunter and prey had been swapped.
There is no extra time to waste at this moment. Even if everything is prepared, the subspace engine still needs a few minutes to warm up before it can advance at full power. It won't take long for them to arrive above the haunted ship, and the Geller force fields of the two ships will overlap. The inevitable consequence of performing a subspace jump when the two starships are so close is——< br>
The hull structure will be damaged to some extent.
"Warp now! Captain! Activate the subspace engine!"
Thor stood in the bridge hall, his body upright, and in front of him to the left was Soshyan, who stood with his head held high like a sculpture.
On the other side, standing is Savita. He is wearing a helmet. Others cannot see his expression. It is not known whether he is worried or thinking about other things.
The chief navigator's stern orders did not relieve the tension on the bridge, but only caused the crew in the hall to fall into more crazy activities.
The assistants assisting the navigator constantly move their positions under the bright light of the screen, monitoring energy output and safety thresholds.
The Tech-Priest sent a report that the plasma engine has reached 100% output power and is ready to activate the subspace engine.
Soshyan's figure remained motionless, his hands folded in front of his breastplate, his eyes fixed on the multiple screens formed by the main display wall in front of the podium.
The crew and technicians below are like various parts that make up a complex machine, playing their due role, and the hub is Captain Hodges sitting in the captain's seat. .
Investigations, replies, inquiries, reports and command orders all have to go through the captain, and this experienced captain also uses brief responses and clear orders to coordinate this complex machine. operation.
"The subspace jump will begin in ten seconds."
Knowing what was going to happen next, Soshyan clenched his fists, took a few steps forward, and stared with squinted eyes. Hodges below.
He grasped the railing at the edge of the podium with both hands and opened his mouth as if to say something.
But in the end his lips just moved a few times and nothing came out.
"Start the jump to the physical universe."
It won't take much time to return to the physical universe, but for the people in it, time seems to pass endlessly.
The frigate "Glory Saber" is in two dimensions at the same time, between the subspace and the real universe, like a confused person wandering at the crossroads of destiny.
The moment before, it was wrapped in the Geller force field, floating like a bubble in the subspace tide.
The next moment, it is in the real universe and breaks away from the subspace.
The chaotic energy torrent impacted the Geller force field, triggering a big explosion, and the unrealistic shock wave instantly engulfed the "Glory Saber".
As powerful as the Astartes, their heads will be confused for a few seconds, and they will be dizzy with an illusory feeling, as if there is only one person left in the space.
But this feeling will soon pass, and Soshyan's eyes become clear again.
"All weapon arrays are in place!"
Soshiyang ordered sternly and asked the short-range scanning radar to be turned back on.
He urgently wanted to know whether the plan worked, and whether the follower behind him had been blown out under this dangerous operation.
