Op Donde was sitting in the command cabin of the No. 6 ship, his hands firmly pressed on the operating ball.

Fine arcs of electricity continued to light up between his palm and the sphere.

In front of him was a huge simulation projection of the entire battleship series.

The Quad-shaped No. 6 ship is composed of four main components.

There are three combat side cabins located in three directions on the outside, and a cabin in the middle.

These four parts are all symmetrical conical octahedral structures.

The total length of the three side cabins is twelve kilometers, and the length of the main cabin is sixteen kilometers.

The three side cabins form an equilateral triangle surrounding the main cabin and are connected to each other by rigid corridors.

Ship No. 6 has a full crew of 20,000 people, with 3,000 people in each of the three side cabins, and more than 10,000 people in the more fully functional main cabin.

The main combat parts of the No. 6 ship are five categories.

First, explosive devices represented by fragmentation bombs.

Second, the super cannon represented by the median real-energy beam cannon that can shake the laws of triple space.

Third, there are a huge number of finger-sized fully intelligent micro combat robots. These robots have developed the microstructure to the extreme, combining curvature flight capabilities and folding flight capabilities in a very small size, and at the same time, they can use self-priming particle absorption modules

, after a long period of medium jet acceleration, it can maintain a speed infinitely close to the speed of light. When it is about to encounter an enemy, it can also quickly transform the shell into a black hole-like material, causing damage to the enemy through seemingly ordinary, but actually shockingly powerful impacts.

This kind of collision is not just a physical contact. In the process, the mode will be rapidly changed according to the opponent's shield characteristics and material characteristics, and a variety of different real energy level interference ripples will be released to the outside world. This kind of collision is cheap, high-quality, and extremely difficult to resist.

Micro combat units have gradually replaced the old smart space fighters.

Fourth, a small amount of all-purpose armor controlled by pilots, armored pilots and warriors.

Fifth, a comprehensive defense system composed of multi-functional shields that can respond to different enemy attack methods, and composite armor with absolute rigidity.

During its more than eighty-year voyage, the Unknown Fleet never stopped technological innovation.

Compared with when it first set off, the battleship's combat effectiveness is now far from what it used to be.

Every technological revolution in the external empire will be synchronized to the fleet and transformed into new means.

This method includes not only equipment related to military offense and defense, but also the transformation of the human body itself and the use of various new drugs that stimulate potential.

Of course, the human body itself is a very precise instrument. To unleash a large amount of potential rashly is to overload the mechanical equipment, which will easily leave some sequelae.

This thing is like the doping used by athletes eight hundred years ago, and it usually follows the basic law that the greater the benefit, the greater the price.

The physical sequelae are easy to deal with, but the brain sequelae are really a big problem.

But no matter how high the price is, it is not worth dying in battle.

Moreover, when human armies are on the space battlefield, they often go out with no intention of returning, so the side effects don't matter.

People of different military classes have different types of potions.

For example, the gunner who is responsible for controlling the giant cannon in the fleet needs to take a comprehensive potion that enhances the direction of association strengthening and improves the ability to predict the intuition of large-scale battlefields.

Armored pilots who need to use their armor to rush out need to take a comprehensive potion that enhances their logic ability, instantaneous reaction ability and thinking stability.

In addition, each comprehensive medicine is divided into different levels according to the strength of its medicinal effect.

At this time, Op Tonde had already injected his third bottle of A-level pilot's comprehensive potion and continued to work for a total of seventy-two hours.

He has his own fighting style.

He has incorporated more than 90% of the micro combat robots in the entire battleship into his own combat procedures. At the same time, he has also set relatively broad preset operating procedures for multiple working groups such as the bomb delivery team and the cannon team.

Op treats the entire No. 6 ship as a huge armor.

As a top pilot, he controls the entire battleship.

This brought him a huge workload and caused some controversy, but Opp believed that he had a clear conscience and that his efforts and abilities were worthy of the job.

The last preset command was entered, and the effect of the medicine had just worn off? But Op did not faint. Instead, he slid back a certain distance along the chair and entered the medical cabin that was already on standby.

Various medical equipment started on their own, and at the same time, he began to observe the battleship's comprehensive information.

"The torch system is operating well. After the latest equipment adjustment, the torch power has been increased by % based on the original design parameters."

This torch system is exactly the chaotic quantum signal transmitter released by the No. 6 ship to deliberately expose its whereabouts.

"Twenty seconds ago, information exchange and communication with the No. 1 and No. 2 ships were completed. Now the distance between us and the No. 1 ship is 1.633 thousand kilometers. The No. 2 ship briefly started the curvature movement, and the distance from us is 1.63 billion.

17.9 billion kilometers.”

"An enemy warship has appeared in front of the No. 2 ship, and the military strength comparison index is 0.8."

"According to the message sent back by the forward curvature space detector? A large number of enemy ships appeared eight light years ahead of our ship. It is expected that we will engage the enemy in six days. The military strength comparison index between the enemy and us is 9:1."

Op rolled his eyes and cursed secretly: "You really think highly of me. What you give to others is 0.8? What you give to me is nine to one. It's poisonous!"

He definitely wouldn't be able to defeat him, but Op continued to scold him, so he didn't feel panic at all.

Six days have passed by the time we actually engage the enemy. The fleet should have just escaped from the enemy's surveillance area. We can safely evacuate boldly.

Ship No. 6 is the most maneuverable high-speed battleship among the three torch ships? And he is not a top warrior? But he is infinitely close to the top pilot as the captain to control the overall situation. There is also another senior top warrior who is responsible for the cutting-edge force.

, if you want to escape? The chance of escape is not small.

The last comprehensive message read: "It has been seventy-six hours and thirty-three minutes since we set off, and we have not received any message from our fleet."

Op nodded.

At this time, no news is the best news.

It's not that Opp doesn't care about whether Tong Ling's freezing experiment is successful, but now his task is to cover the safe escape of the main fleet.

If you can escape by yourself, then wait for the integration data package sent by the empire.

After working continuously for seventy-two hours, he felt a little sleepy. Just as he was about to close his eyes, the person in charge of the intelligence side of the No. 6 ship suddenly received the message, "Captain, there is bad news."

"explain."

"The compound-eye slave fleet in front of us has divided one-third of its force, about 7,000 fast reconnaissance ships, and diffused them in other directions. The scanning range of 621 of them just covers the expected movement of our fleet.

direction, there is a risk of exposure."

Op suddenly sat up straight, sweating.

Although the unknown fleet has cut off contact with the No. 6 ship at this time, before departure, Opp and others verified the general direction of the unknown fleet's next movement with Qin Guang to avoid unexpected situations.

Op thought about it for about two seconds, his long arms almost scratching his scalp.

He turned his head and looked at the lieutenants in front of him who were waiting for him to make a decision, as well as the top warrior.

Op stood up slowly and muttered in a low voice: "Transfer all the databases and raw materials related to the cryonics experiment to the fire cabin carrying the embryos. By the way, also move the most advanced practical material synthesizer.

Go up. Arrange for ten elite warriors to drive the control fire capsule to leave the No. 6 ship and head to the Perseus-Pisces super galaxy cluster at full speed."

"yes!"

Op looked around again and grinned, as if mocking himself, "Damn it, I thought it had only been a few days and I would have to break my promise. Everyone, enter the warp flight state in advance and activate short-range jumps intermittently! Go straight to the front to intercept.

Fleet center area! We must directly engage the enemy fleet within three days

Firefight! And the opponent must be beaten painfully, and the opponent must take back one third of his eyes! All construction machinery with the ability to deploy real energy clouds is dispatched, and they must arrive at the battlefield three hours before us and the enemy ships, and give them

I have laid out a battlefield environment with a diameter of more than seven billion kilometers!"

"yes!"

A series of orders were issued, and after everyone dispersed, Opp put his hands into his trouser pockets and took out two things.

One is a pitch-black medicine bottle, which contains banned-grade comprehensive medicine.

The other one is an old-fashioned printed photo.

In the photo, Tong Ling is in the middle, and Gao Xiaoqi and he are standing on the left and right of Tong Ling respectively. Beside the three people, there are holographic projections of Bai Xiang, Sun Tongwen, Shan Centipede and others.

There are seven people in the front row, and behind these seven people are holographic projections of hundreds of people.

This is a group photo spanning time and space of everyone who has ever joined Tong Ling’s team over the past few decades.

Some people are still alive, but most people have died.

Op's nose was slightly sour and he took a deep breath.

"Finally it's my turn."

More than ten minutes later, the adjutant reported back, "Captain, the personnel of the fire cabin have been selected and are about to depart. Do you want to say something to them?"

Op shook his head, "Please tell them for me. Just say that I once promised someone that humans will spread out in the Perseus-Pisces super galaxy cluster and exist forever. I don't want to break my promise.

.Go."

…

Three days and six hours later.

In the void of the universe more than four thousand light-years away above the ecliptic plane of the Milky Way, a brilliant explosion of a fragmentation bomb briefly flashed, illuminating the endless starry sky.

…

Four days later, with Tong Ling's condition completely stabilized, the final step of the cryonics experiment, cryopreservation, began in an orderly manner.
To be continued...
