Chapter 235 Tracker
The Chief Navigator was accompanied by Captain Hodges, and together they came to the command podium on the bridge.
Sosh Yang stood on top, with Thor, who was not wearing a helmet, next to him. Then he raised his palms wrapped in armored gloves and motioned to the two of them.
The chief navigator stepped forward and stopped five meters in front of the command platform, while the captain stayed further back.
His third "eye" was obscured by the flat silver band on his forehead, but Suoshiyang could detect the invisible touch on his body, like a spark splashing onto his flesh.
"What happened?"
"An urgent matter."
"Let me tell you."
"Dear Chapter Master, sailing from Safinius Finally, my family companions and I saw a ship following us. At first we thought it was just a coincidence - a ship of a certain transport fleet might accidentally overlap with us on a certain route."
< br>“Don’t you think so now?”
Sosh Yang took a step forward, pressed forward, and held the guardrail with both hands.
"As far as I know, it is very difficult to track a ship in the warp."
"We think so too, my lord... Many times, navigators are trying to Keep the distance between each other to the extent that each other can be discovered, but within one day, at most two days, there is a 99% chance of losing each other's tracks."
The chief navigator paused for a moment, seeming to organize words.
“Sometimes we compare subspace with the ocean, but that is just a simple comparison. The flow of subspace not only includes the spatial dimension we are in, but also covers different time dimensions.”< br>
"I know all this."
Soshiyang interrupted the other party's speech.
“An hour that has passed in the subspace may have passed several days in the physical universe. On the same voyage, a ship may arrive at its destination weeks earlier than another ship that departs at the same time. But you haven't given me a reasonable explanation yet... Why was it not a coincidence that you saw that ship appear? Chief Navigator, you should have made hundreds of warp jumps with a single ship on a warp voyage. Meeting in the subspace currents is not a strange thing."
"No, dear chapter leader, that's not the case."
The chief navigator straightened his spine and looked at him. caught Sosh Yang's gaze, although after a moment, he had to look away under the pressure of the Space Marine's eyes.
"The special thing about this incident is that we changed the course and direction four times in a row, but less than an hour after each change, the ship hung behind us again, and it was following us, although I didn't Who knows who has such an ability?"
Soshiyang did not waste time asking the chief navigator if he was really so sure, because the frankness in the other person's tone and the determination in his eyes showed that he was convinced of his discovery. Believe it or not.
Then he nodded and motioned for the captain to come forward.
"I apologize for my hastiness. Thank you for informing me of this matter, Captain Hodges. I believe you have some understanding of this, right?"
"Chief The navigator told me of his suspicions yesterday, my lord, but it sounds incredible. No navigator can keep track of another ship in the warp. It is impossible."
"No navigator can do it."
Saul on the side suddenly whispered:
"It doesn't mean that other things can't be done."
Hearing these words , Soshiyang nodded thoughtfully.
He does not believe in any coincidences now. Unless there are clear facts to prove the error of the chief navigator's inference, he would rather believe that the enemy may be able to do anything.
Although he still couldn't know what the enemy was.
“Is it possible to get rid of this enemy without adding additional risks or delaying the voyage?”
Glory Saber is not a powerful battleship, Sosh Yang is very It is a rational choice not to confront this unknown enemy head-on.
The chief navigator frowned slightly.
“I don’t know what to do. This is not what I have learned.” “You must have been chased by something other than a ship, right?”
Soshiyang hinted:
"As we all know, there are other 'things' chasing ships in the subspace."
"Of course, I know some The best way to avoid it is to jump to the physical universe."
"You mean, the jump can make it undetectable by another ship?"
"Generally speaking, yes, the storm generated when leaving the subspace will cover our tracks."
"But we cannot guarantee that the haunting ship behind does not have relevant detection methods."< br>
Thor interjected,
“We know nothing about their abilities. As far as I know, any ship’s jump will cause ripples in the subspace, and the fluctuations will echo. It cannot be suppressed. If our normal voyages in the past are tracked, the movement caused by the jump back to the real universe will be like the scorching summer sun to them, unable to cover up the traces."
"Emergency jump update. That’s right, my lord.”
Hodges added.
“The tail flames and air currents are like the movement caused by throwing a boulder into a calm lake. Even an inexperienced navigator can detect it.”
“There is another The risk is that the energy of the subspace engine may collide with the Geller force field of the ship."
The chief navigator said another possibility.
“Because no matter what method they use to follow us, they must stay close enough to us. This distance is not considered safe.”
"Interesting."
A strange voice appeared.
The chief navigator and captain turned around and saw a warrior wearing power armor with a stern face and a mocking smile.
They had never seen this Chapter warrior before.
“Listen to me, prepare the entire ship for an emergency jump, prepare all weapon arrays, and then let this fool navigator find a subspace current that can quickly travel in the opposite direction and flow quickly.”< br>
"What are your plans?"
Soshiyang asked, his brows wrinkled with sullenness. He had already told Savita not to appear in public easily.
“Although that guy is very close to us, he can’t react immediately.”
The Prince of Crows explained impatiently:
“We took the initiative to pull Close the distance with them, then activate the subspace engine and jump back to the real universe. The energy fluctuations can grab the ship and drag it out of the subspace. It will be easy to deal with when it reaches the real universe. "< br>
"If the two ships are entangled, a more serious accident may occur, sir!"
The captain immediately objected loudly.
Sevita sneered, without even looking at the other party, but walked to Sosh Yang and whispered in a volume that only the two of them could hear:
"That one There are Astartes and... demons on the ship. They smell her scent, and they will definitely not be able to escape."
It only took Soshyan a second to realize that Sevi. Who is the "she" that Tower is talking about.
Only then did he realize what such a powerful and pure psyker meant in the subspace.
