The Red River Fleet, led by Thorn Intercepting Battleships, began to jump in the fleet.

The so-called fleet jumping is a large-scale spacecraft that makes space jumping. Compared with a single spacecraft jumping, this jumping is more risky, because during that sub-light speed flight, even if a spacecraft fails, it will bring disaster to the entire fleet.

Unlike warships, the speed of the transport ship cannot be unified when jumping, and the safety risks are greater. In order to avoid causing losses to the fleet due to the inability to unified speed, Zou Zichuan divided the nearly 70 transport ships of the Honghe Fleet into several groups according to their speed.

From the hologram image, this desert is like a vacuum zone, with no star clusters, stars, planets, and even no celestial bodies with a diameter of more than 500 kilometers. Of course, this is just a macro perspective. In fact, there are still a large number of meteorites, comets and cosmic dust in this space. Although they are very small and insignificant, they are like reefs in the sea, which will pose a great threat to the accelerated spacecraft.

In any case, this is a hellish world. Billions of years ago, there must have been many unknown star systems here. The brilliant starlight once shone everywhere. But I don’t know when an antimatter fountain was formed here. The large amount of antimatter that erupted constantly met the stars that existed here. The two annihilate each other, and the big bang shop that shook the universe pawnshop everything here. All matter turned into powder, leaving nothing except a void... From then on, this place became a desert of the universe, and only meteorites wandering around would visit here...

This annihilation forms a space jump point, allowing people to find the entrance to another space.

The location of the space jump point is not sure.

The star maps circulating on the interstellar network are not perfect, because they are far away from the main interstellar routes, and there is very little information about it. Except for a large space jump point marked on the holographic map, it is almost blank.

In interstellar voyage, blank space represents unknown, and unknown represents danger. Except for adventure spacecraft, other aircraft will be far away from this area.

Because of the fastest speed, the thorns intercepted the warship drove in the front and began a journey into the interstellar desert.

Zou Zichuan was also on the thorny ship.

As a pioneer, the Thorn Interceptor Warship launched a detection system, scanning the airspace, and the information obtained from the holographic scanning was constantly accumulating. The holographic image gradually outlined the star map ahead. A group of asteroids gathered at an oblique distance of 2 million kilometers from the 2369 airspace on the port side, looking like a huge hairtail; 8 million kilometers away from the starboard side was floating a piece of cosmic dust, mostly composed of ice, and the density was not high, but it could cause huge damage to the spacecraft flying at sub-sublight speed.

Directly in front of the thorn-striking warship is a magnificent asteroid belt, composed of about hundreds of thousands of asteroids, spanning two large airspaces, like an endless ridge. In the middle of the asteroid, there is an undetectable void. Obviously, there is a space jumping point.

Looking at the chaotic world deep in the asteroid belt, Zou Zichuan, who was standing in front of the main control board, couldn't help but frown.

He could not have imagined that the space jumping point was not in the interstellar desert at all, but on the edge of dense asteroids.

Zou Zichuan would rather jump into the interstellar desert in space.

Jumping in a chaotic asteroid belt is undoubtedly a challenge to life.

No choice!

"Prepare to speed up!"

"yes!"

"Activate the energy shield!"

"yes!"

“Maximum power jump engine!”

"yes!"

"Start the secondary engine!"

"yes!"

"Start the antimatter engine self-destruct system!"

"yes!"

...

As orders were issued one by one, cold sweat broke out on the captain on the transport ship's forehead, especially the last command to activate the "self-destruct system".

Each spacecraft has several self-destructive programs, and the antimatter engine self-destructive program is the most serious self-destructive program, because after starting this program, if the spacecraft encounters external impact or failure, the spacecraft will immediately automatically start the antimatter engine destructive program.

What is the antimatter engine self-destruct program?

Any astronaut knows that when this program is activated, it means that the people on this spacecraft have no chance of escaping, because the antimatter engine will instantly destroy the spacecraft into nothingness, and neither the spacecraft nor the humans on the spacecraft will leave any trace...

Designing this antimatter engine self-destruction program is a helpless move by humans in space jumping and adventure activities, because, in the era when human universe activities are most prosperous, spacecraft have repeatedly caused congested space jumping points due to failures and external force strikes, and the entire fleet is destroyed.

With the destruction system of antimatter engines, this damage will be minimized. When the spacecraft hits a meteorite while jumping and cannot complete the jumping navigation, the spacecraft will be annihilated, thus not affecting the passage of ships behind, nor will it cause damage to the routes that have finally been discovered...

It has to be said that this self-destruction program is too cruel, but it has made great contributions to the human world and saved many hard-won space jump points for the human alliance.

The thorn interceptor battleship is also responsible for a very important task at the forefront, which is to sweep all obstacles.

The laser cannons of the thorns intercepted the battleship were almost at full capacity, clearing some small meteorites on the route.

This design lasted for nearly three hours before approaching the dense asteroid zone at the sub-light speed.

From the dense meteorites, it can be judged that this route seems to have been abandoned for a long time. It is impossible for a frequently used route to have such dense small meteorites, because any spacecraft sailing will find ways to clear these meteorites that affect space jumping...

Is there something wrong with the Black Planet?

This idea broke out in Zou Zichuan's mind almost the first time.

"jump!"

Looking at the space jumping point on the holographic image, Zou Zichuan gently pressed the button. Because the Thorn Warship had been accelerating for three hours, the engine accelerator instantly raised the speed of the warship to the sub-light speed, and the human brain suddenly became blank. When Zou Zichuan opened his eyes and unbuttoned the hydraulic life system, the Thorn Warship had already appeared in a quiet airspace...

The transport ship behind has not appeared yet.

According to the navigation speed difference between transport ships and stern interceptors, the transport fleet must appear at least twenty minutes to thirty minutes later.

Looking at the cold and vast night sky in front of me, Zou Zichuan felt a chill for no reason.

The messy signals collected from the air showed that this was once a very busy airspace, but now this airspace is silent and looks extremely strange...

The Thorn Interceptor Warship quickly slowed down from the sub-light speed to the normal speed.

The holographic scanning system is turned on.

"Sir, there is a spaceship three hundred kilometers ahead!"

"Sir, there is a spaceship five thousand kilometers ahead."

"Sir, there is the wreckage of a warship fifty kilometers ahead..."

“…”

...

Information gathered one by one, and these information confirmed Zou Zichuan's first feeling. Zou Zichuan ordered the speed of thorns intercepting the warships to slow down as much as possible, and turned on the strong lights.

The principle of a strong light is similar to a laser, but it has no lethality and can illuminate the dark universe on a large scale. Under this strong light, people can observe the situation within a few kilometers outside the porthole through their naked eyes.

Many times, humans prefer to rely on their own eyes to observe unknown things.

The distance of fifty kilometers was almost negligible in the vast universe. Soon, the thorns intercepted the warship and arrived at the wreckage of the spacecraft.

Through the white light, people can clearly see this spacecraft floating in the dark and cold universe from the porthole.

Strictly speaking, this is no longer a spacecraft, because the spacecraft is seriously damaged and at least one-third of its tail is unknown.

The thorn interceptor battleship slowly swam around the spaceship.

As the warship moves, people can be sure that this is not an ordinary spaceship, but a space warship. The only difference is that this space warship does not have any number on it. The entire spaceship is painted black, like a ghost, and there are a large number of fragments floating around the space warship...

Obviously, there was a tragic space war here.

"Sir, there's a mecha!"

When the thorns intercepted the battleship bypassed the side of the dark space warship, they immediately found a group of unknown objects floating in the air. Almost immediately, people identified that this was a wreckage of a mecha group.

This is a huge mecha group, with at least seventy light mechas. The mecha group seemed to be immediately hit by fierce artillery fire after coming out of the space warship. Almost no mecha’s armor plate was complete, and the mecha’s body was covered with bullet holes.

People cannot calculate when this tragic battle took place.

"Sir, within a radius of 10,000 kilometers, the wreckage of twenty-one space warships has been found."

The expression of the leopard soldiers seemed a little heavy. Obviously, they broke into a battlefield. Although the war has ended, no one can be sure whether there is a hidden crisis on this battlefield. Compared with the number of warships in this place, the force of a thorn intercepting warship is too thin. If an unknown attack is encountered, the thorn warship can escape by speed. However, dozens of transport ships of the Red River Fleet will have no chance. You must know that the wreckage of these warships is not intercepting warships, but the main warships. The energy cover of the transport ship cannot withstand the bombardment of a shot...
