After Han Xinghai and Tony returned to the Royal 1 shuttle, they briefly told everyone about the situation. Soon, everyone came to a conclusion: except for some of the shells of the Stan spacecraft, the main structures such as the main and secondary engines and backup energy were not damaged.

It is speculated that the main engine of the Stan spacecraft is dormant.

It is very likely that after the interstellar brigade army ant entered the Stan spacecraft on a large scale, after the fierce battle, some crew members believed that the Stan spacecraft had been captured. In order to prevent Prince Michael from rashly entering the Stan without knowing it, they turned off the main engine of the Stan.

Similarly, people believe that the interstellar brigade military ants inside the Stan spacecraft have evacuated.

Finally, people agreed to board the Stan spacecraft. As long as the main engine of the Stan spacecraft was not destroyed, even if it lost its interstellar jumping ability, staying on a galaxy-level spacecraft would be better than staying on a shuttle.

The huge size and capacity of the Estan, the food stored on it is enough for them to consume for hundreds of years, is also the most attractive thing to everyone. As long as there is food, you don’t have to worry about life safety for the time being.

After the decision was made, Royal 1 landed on the interstellar dock of Stan. Because the number of Royal 1's engineering mechas was insufficient, people put on the spacesuits above Royal 1 to board the Stan spacecraft.

The spacesuit is different from the mecha, but it is slightly larger than the human body. It mainly stays in space for a short time or repairs some external equipment. Of course, the spacesuits above Royal 1 are mainly for escape, because Royal 1 is a multi-functional shuttle. In addition to connecting between the planet and the spacecraft, escape is its main purpose.

Because of the gravity system being activated, the Stan spacecraft has no difference between walking and the planet's surface except that it is still in a vacuum state, which gives people a sense of security that is down-to-earth.

People's target is the main control room of the Stan. Tony is familiar with the main control room because he just returned from the main control room and activated the lighting and gravity system through backup energy.

People walked carefully in the corridor, secretly shocked by the tragic level of the battle.

The corpses of the interstellar brigade army ant far surpassed the wreckage of the mecha. It can be seen that the mecha fighter on this spacecraft is very powerful in combat, and it has dealt a heavy blow to the interstellar brigade army ant.

Looking at the interstellar brigade's corpses and mecha wreckage everywhere, Prince Michael looked sad. Those who could follow him on a trip were all his loyal subordinates.

Soon, everyone came to the main control room. What surprised people was that the life circulation system in the main control room was working, which made people overjoyed.

The normal operation of the life cycle system means that people can avoid wearing bloated cosmic suits.

Judging from the steel gates that were not damaged in the main control room, it should be that the interstellar brigade army ants captured the entire spacecraft and arrived at the main control room. The captain made an important decision to open all gates and put the main engine in a dormant state.

It has to be said that this captain has a very outstanding vision. Because all the steel gates are open, the damage to the Stan is very limited. If all the steel gates are closed, the interstellar brigade army ant will inevitably adopt violent invasion to enter some closed cabins.

At the same time, you can imagine how courage it takes to make a decision to open all the steel gates, because that is tantamount to suicide!

After confirming that the main control room was safe, people took off their space suits.

What a big main control room?

Han Xinghai looked at the main control room of hundreds of square meters in amazement. It was a warm metal world, with indicator lights flashing with various colors of light everywhere. The curved floor-to-ceiling portholes that were dozens of meters wide were even more dazzling, and the shining stars seemed to be right beside him.

This is the brain of the Stan spacecraft, and every corner of the Stan is under the control of this main control room.

The main control optical brain was not fully started. After Tony entered a set of passwords, Prince Michael entered another set of passwords, and the main control optical brain was fully started.

After the main control light brain is started, the lights in the main control room have undergone some slight changes, and some instruments in the dormant state have also begun to work.

"Didi..."

When the main control light brain is turned on, immediately, a rapid alarm sound flashed with orange lights on the upper row of indicator lights in the main control room.

“Orange Alert.”

Prince Michael and Dr. Wayne looked at each other and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The alarm levels of the Stan spacecraft are divided into three levels: yellow, orange and red. Now it is orange, which means that the situation is not very bad. If the red level is reached, the crew must be evacuated immediately. The orange level is at least an environment that allows humans to survive.

"The protective armor outside the E area is damaged and the life circulation system cannot be used."

"The N-zone holographic scanning system was destroyed."

"The steel gate in Area P is 100% damaged and is in isolation."

"The right secondary engine is damaged by 70%, and there is no possibility of repair."

"The left secondary engine is in forced hibernation and cannot be detected."

"The main engine is in forced sleep and cannot be detected."

“…”

The optical brain began to activate the self-test function, and the pleasant electronic sound kept reporting the data of the Stan.

People looked at the data flow on the holographic screen, and their hearts seemed to fall into an ice hole. The extent to which the Stan spacecraft was damaged was far beyond their imagination.

The entire Stan spacecraft has thirteen engines, and four of them were actually damaged. This is a desperate data.

What makes people most worried is that the main engine is in a forced hibernation state and cannot obtain data as soon as possible.

"Your Highness, you can turn on the main engine now." Captain Tony looked at Prince Michael and consulted.

“Try it…”

"Wait, I suggest that you need to be cautious when you are not sure about the safety of the main engine."

"Why?" Prince Michael asked in confusion.

"Your Highness, although the Stan spacecraft is not a space warship, its armor thickness is thicker than that of ordinary space warships. Moreover, the Stan also has a well-trained mecha fighting expert. The interstellar brigade army ants will never easily conquer the spacecraft. I suspect that those steel gates were not opened by the captain." Dr. Wayne said with a serious face.

"What do you want to say?"

"Your Highness, the interstellar brigade military ants have extremely powerful brain wave invasion function, and our captain is not a soldier. He does not have the willpower of steel, and he is likely to be disturbed by the interstellar brigade military ants. We have also seen that the damage encountered by the hull is mainly the shell, and the battle is also concentrated in the shell. According to normal people's thinking, this should be a long tug-of-war. Our guards will guard every steel gate. The fact is that the battle of the guards is mainly concentrated in the outermost part, rather than gradually retreating. This situation can only explain one problem."

"Um?"

"That is, at the beginning of the battle, all the steel gates were opened, and people had to concentrate on the outermost part of intercepting the invasion of the interstellar brigade military ants."

"What does this have to do with the main engine? Is it also done by the interstellar brigade army ants when the main engine enters forced hibernation?" Prince Michael asked with a frown.

Prince Michael's words immediately caused laughter from a group of big men. You know, turning off the main engine is not as simple as pressing a button. It is a very complicated operation process and requires extremely high authority. Even if the IQ of the Interstellar Brigade Army Ant is high, it is impossible to perform such a complex operation.

"Your Highness, haven't you discovered a very strange problem?"

“What’s the problem?”

"The holographic monitoring data of the spacecraft is blank."

“…”

Everyone's bodies were shocked, and people seemed to have ignored this problem. The Stan's light brain was not destroyed. As long as the light brain is in operation, it will surely record the battle scenes. In fact, there is no data on the invasion of the interstellar brigade military ants in the light brain.

"Your Highness, because there is no holographic video, it is impossible to restore the environment at that time. However, I can be sure that the steel gate was not opened by the captain, as for the main engine. It may also be that the captain tried his best to close the main engine at the last moment. It is very likely that the captain did not want to turn off the main engine at all, but wanted to start the self-destruction program of the spacecraft."

"Start the self-destruct program?" Prince Michael said with a sluggish expression and asked, "Why is the main engine forced to shut down?"

"This needs to be confirmed. Your Highness, is there any difference between closing the main engine and starting the self-destructing program? "

"Yes, but the difference is not big. When starting a self-destruction program, you must enter the password to turn off the main engine. Simply put, the self-destruction program has one more password than turning off the main engine." Prince Michael thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, it's very likely that the captain died when he was about to start the self-destruct program, and the result was a forced shutdown of the main engine."

“…”

The huge main control room suddenly fell into extreme silence. If it was as Dr. Wayne guessed, then from the very beginning, the Stan spacecraft had been controlled by the interstellar brigade military ants.

"Your Highness, in fact, I suspected from the beginning that, based on the old minister's understanding of the interstellar brigade military ants, the interstellar brigade military ants will never corrode and penetrate thick protective armor in a short time. Stan is a galaxy-level spacecraft, and even the weakest armor thickness is several meters. In this corrosion process, the intelligent monitoring system of the optical brain is unreasonable and cannot be discovered. If the captain discovers a large-scale invasion of the interstellar brigade military ant, he will definitely order high-speed flight to get rid of it. Unfortunately, the interstellar coordinates of the Stan spacecraft have not moved at all, that is to say, from the very beginning, the intelligent optical brain of the Stan has lost control..."

The main control room fell into silence again, and people became nervous inexplicably, watching around, just like interstellar brigade army ants lurking in a dark corner and waiting for an opportunity to move at any time.

"Han Xinghai, what do you think?" Jin Yue suddenly asked Han Xinghai beside her.

"I... have no objection."

Han Xinghai shook his head, but from his respectful gaze at Dr. Wayne, people already knew what Han Xinghai was thinking.

Han Xinghai expressed his respect for Dr. Wayne's heart. When he went back, the queen had already analyzed this possibility. Dr. Wayne actually came to this conclusion through observation. His meticulous thinking has reached a terrifying level. You must know that the queen is an optical brain, and every result of it is obtained through trillions of calculations.

In fact, Han Xinghai was a little fussy. Dr. Wayne is a master of the Michael galaxy science community. He has a respectful identity. Although he focuses on biological research, he has a lot of knowledge and is very knowledgeable. It is precisely because of this reason that he was arranged by the emperor by Prince Michael. He hopes that Prince Michael, who is ignorant, will learn something even if he is influenced by the eyes, so as not to become an embroidered pillow.

The effect is obvious, because Dr. Wayne and Prince Michael have indeed changed a lot. At least, he knows the power of knowledge, and has a kingly mind. However, the emperor of the Michael Empire never dreamed that he arranged Dr. Wayne by Prince Michael's side, but put an end to the Michael Empire, which he unexpectedly expected...

The so-called "those who are close to the red" and those who are close to the ink" can change a person subtly. Although Prince Michael hates Dr. Wayne's chattering character, he admires Dr. Wayne's extensive knowledge. Unconsciously, Prince Michael's style of conduct gradually moved closer to Dr. Wayne's style.

Not to mention Prince Michael, even a person like Han Xinghai who has the power of steel, has been subtly influenced during long-term contact with queen bees, and his attitude towards data has become increasingly rigorous, and has reached a nearly harsh level.

After a while of discussion, a consensus was reached that all engines would not be started for the time being.

However, those who know a little common sense know that backup energy can only be supported for a short period of time and cannot maintain the operation of spacecraft for a long time. You must know that both the life cycle system and the gravity system are very energy-consuming.

Restoring the engine operation has become a top priority. Even if it is to start a secondary engine, it can at least solve the current energy consumption problem.

The expedition was handed over to the captain of the guard.

Now, it is necessary to figure out which engines in the dormant state have problems and why they are in the closed state. From all open hatch doors, the steel gates in the engine compartment should be closed after the engine is forced to close, because if the light brain issues the command to open all, it is impossible to close locally.

"I'll fix what damaged shells."

After Han Xinghai said a word, he disappeared behind a steel gate.

"Kan Xinghai, don't..."

Before the moon could shout out a word, Han Xinghai's figure had disappeared into the metal passage. People couldn't help but look at each other. You know, the current Stan spacecraft can be said to be hidden in murderous intent in every place. Putting aside the interstellar brigade military ants, even the spacecraft itself is full of risks, because many cabins are damaged and the life system cannot play a role, which can easily expose the body directly to an environment close to the vacuum.

The body structure of the human body is not suitable for survival under vacuum. Data obtained in many disasters and studies show that when external pressure drops to a vacuum state, bubbles form in the blood, and the lungs will be damaged within a few minutes. As nitrogen dissolves from the blood, the nervous system will be damaged within a few hours. The sudden drop in pressure is fatal to the human body, and the air entering the lungs will explode within a few seconds.

With mentally preparedness, the longest survival time for humans in a vacuum is 12 seconds to 15 seconds. Even people with special training can only last for more than 20 seconds at most.

Watching Han Xinghai disappear, Dr. Wayne looked thoughtful. During this period, he had been observing the young man's every move. The young man's absorption of knowledge reached a level of almost fanaticism. What surprised Dr. Wayne the most was Han Xinghai's focused and persistent attitude. As a scientist, Dr. Wayne knew very well that this was a very precious quality.

In Dr. Wayne's eyes, Han Xinghai is a mystery. He is like an endless treasure, and he always gives people an unexpected surprise.

However, Dr. Wayne still had a little bit of understanding about Han Xinghai going out alone. This was a three-kilometer-long galaxy-level spacecraft, like a maze. Even Dr. Wayne did not dare to walk around on the ship.

Dr. Wayne naturally didn't know that when Han Xinghai drove the round hammer into the main control hall, the queen "takes" the information of the Stan. According to the queen's instructions, he was going to the maintenance cabin to get the materials and tools.
