From black technology to super engineering

Ayla Star, outside the executor's base.

On the clouds, a small passing ship is tightly attached to the landing port of the base.

The passing ship is very small, and the crew cabin has less than ten seats. At this time, there are even only two people in the crew cabin.

Following Liana's instructions, Gloria tied herself tightly to the safety seat, then picked up the backpack and hugged it in her arms, her whole back arched tensely.

Her actions made Liana, who just turned her head from the front row, burst out laughing.

"Do you think that crossing the jump wormhole is by aircraft? Worried about the turbulent airflow?"

"Ah..." Gloria blushed and straightened up a little.

"It doesn't need to be so tight." Liana retracted her gaze, and then looked out of the porthole.

Those were two spaceships from the home planet of Mobis, one was full of scientists and engineers from the Academy of Prophet and Legion, and the other... was a huge incident investigation team.

She had to admit that she underestimated the impact of the annihilation of Dika's main fleet two months ago--to be precise, the impact on her personally.

As a result, the current situation has gradually escaped her control.

It stands to reason that, as a quasi-prophet and one of the parties involved, she should have stayed at the base to cooperate with the investigation and complete the analysis of human combat power with the team of scientists.

But her mentor told her that it is best to leave Ella for a while. At the same time... it is also necessary to maximize her previous contributions as much as possible, so that she can better deal with the pressure from the Supreme Council and the Enlightenment Association.

So... She chose to leave after handing over the report.

Anxiety rose in Liana's eyes. Just as she withdrew her gaze and was about to control the spaceship to leave the landing port, her wrist suddenly vibrated.

She glanced at it, and connected to the communication without the slightest hesitation.

"Hall, are you coming back?"

Hall's voice sounded next to his ear: "I'm not in a hurry yet."

"Aren't you in a hurry?" Liana turned her head to look outside the cabin again, and frowned slightly: "Are you really not worried about your base?"

"It's useless to worry." Hall said softly after a few seconds of silence: "How is Dika now?"

"I don't know, I'm already on the transit ship and I'm about to go to Frost Star. But..." Liana took a light breath: "It can be seen that he is not in a good condition."

Hall was silent again for a few seconds before saying, "He has a premonition."

"Yes... are you ready to give up on him?"

"Although I'm not willing to admit it, someone must be responsible for this incident... It's just that this pot is a bit big." As he spoke, Hall's voice rose with a touch of sarcasm: "Anna, do you know? Last night, I I suddenly had a nightmare."

"What nightmare?"

"I dreamed that I married you."

Liana was startled for a moment, then raised her eyebrows: "Get lost! Would it be a nightmare to marry my old lady?"

"No, the moment I put on the spirit ring for you, the human fleet came in front of me."

Liana was taken aback again, she subconsciously reached out and touched the top of her head.

The wedding of the imperial people is to wear a spiritual ring for each other's spiritual touch, which means that each other's souls will be together forever.

Lowering her eyes, Liana took a few breaths and said softly, "Are you making a fuss over a molehill? Now we still have an absolute advantage, and the Academy of Seers has also brought a secret weapon against humans..."

"Also... Based on the information sent by Crozier and our analysis of the number of human warships in previous battles, humans do have extraordinary productivity, but it is still impossible to match the legion..."

"Yes, but you overlooked one point."

"What?"

"Human beings have a common goal." Hall's voice became more mocking: "But we... don't."

Liana raised her eyebrows slightly, and then frowned slightly.

"Before I left, I was optimistic... thinking that I could rely on the enemy of mankind to bring some vitality to the decaying empire... At the very least, I could take this opportunity to ease the relationship between the Legion and the Enlightenment Association."

"But when I returned to my home planet, I realized that I was still too naive."

"It's not just Sumaya of the Enlightenment Association, the Prophet's Council, the Supreme Council, and even the high-level legions...all guard against us like dogs, for fear that we, the princes who maintain the peace of the empire and the safety of the paradise, will become the biggest ones who enjoy their power. obstacle."

"And these big men are also guarding against each other. Even the Enlightenment Association wants to take advantage of the defeat of Base 31 this time...to complete the complete suppression and reorganization of the Legion, and take back control of all battleships to the home planet, and put us All princes who are an eyesore will be cut off!"

Hall laughed angrily as he said: "Fuck it, the Supreme Council is still very supportive! And the Academy of Seers said that it is not difficult technically! What's more terrible, is the high level of the legion, who dare not even let a P!"

Liana listened quietly to Hall's anger, until the other party was only gasping for anger, then she gave a soft "hmm".

"It's like this, Hall... I spent a little longer on my home planet."

"So... I know what the people of the mother planet think."

"So? You want to take us down?" Hall growled angrily again: "Do you think that the empire has been peaceful for 10,000 years, and you need to learn from those backward civilizations, and fight a civil war first?"

"That's not what I mean..." Liana said softly: "What I mean is that technically, it is indeed possible to achieve completely unmanned command and operations. There is no need for you executives to stay away from your home planet and come to these In a place where the birds don’t shit, they have been with backward civilizations for many years, and then they can only pursue material enjoyment...”

"The ancestors built the mother planet so beautifully, didn't they want us to live in peace, and then push the height of civilization to another level according to our personal wishes?"

"Are you also longing for the idyllic retro life?"

"Yes." Liana narrowed her eyes slightly, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth: "I think the cherry blossoms in your house are very beautiful."

There was a long silence in the channel, and after half a sound, Hall's voice sounded again.

"May I interpret your words as...you are willing to come to my house?"

"I didn't say that."

"Well, then wait for me to come back."

Liana reached out and pulled out the controller, with a smile on her lips: "Then what are you still doing on the home planet?"

"Get in touch, go through the back door, and find a good job for Dika—since he's going to take the blame, shouldn't he not be placed?"

Liana hummed softly. She looked up at the executor's base for the last time, and said with a smile, "Then you'd better find one for me, maybe I'll mess it up again this time?"

"It's okay, I'll take care of you."

"roll!"

The corner of Liana's mouth curled up, then she ended the communication and started the escape procedure.

...

Frost galaxy.

The main sequence star where its civilization belt is located is two "middle-aged" stars. The binary star system composed of two stars makes its habitable zone very unstable. In the end, only one star is about 500 million kilometers away from the main sequence star. The rocky planets can meet the requirements of life continuation. And just meet the requirements.

Due to the distance from the main-sequence star, the average annual temperature of the planet during its revolution period is as low as zero. Except for the equatorial zone, the rest of the planet is covered by thick permafrost ice and snow year after year.

This is why the star is called "Frost".

As the largest galaxy among the five servant galaxies of Base 31, Frost Star is also the farthest from Star Ella where Base 31 is located.

If the 32719 galaxy (Dibi galaxy) where the main human fleet is currently located is regarded as the front line established by mankind, then the Frost galaxy is the front line guarding Base 31.

From it to galaxy 32719, only four galaxies need to be crossed.

In the sky, after a circle of faint blue light, Liana's passing ship emerged from the artificial transition point, and then she started the automatic orbiting procedure, and the spacecraft slowly flew to the orbiting space dock.

Along the way, there are constantly passing signals, identifying the identity of the passing ship. Liana knew that this was a sign that the base had stepped up its vigilance—she also knew that at the distant transition point, Pickup had assembled a main fleet of more than 300 ships to wait outside the transition point where human communicators must pass. At the same time, Mikaro's fleet is also heading towards Frost Star - if necessary, Frost Star can gather at least a thousand main battleships within a month.

Coupled with the orbital defense of the Frost Star itself, and the orbital ships that have already been prepared on the Ayla Star, and the fleet of the Blue Leaf Galaxy led by Qiu has arrived at the side where the human fleet is currently located... It can cut off the retreat of the human race at any time .

It can be said that if the human fleet dares to come, it can only be dead without a place to die.

In the space dock, Frost Star Governor Brandy has already opened his arms.

"Oh, beautiful Miss Anna, your arrival has filled the entire galaxy with the light of wisdom." Brandy strode forward with an exaggerated smile on his face: "I didn't see you last time, even the twin stars are dim. A few points.

"Hehe, Lao Bai, you are still so poor." Liana did not hug each other, but stretched out her hand and shook it gently.

She, Hall, and Brandy were all former classmates.

"Hey, you'll be so poor if you've been in this shitty place for a long time—this can be regarded as the most remote and coldest galaxy in the empire. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a distribution!"

"Oh? Then I think you seem to be living a good life? Your weight is not much less than Hall's, right?"

"That's because I had fun while suffering, and I got puffy."

While chatting, the two walked into the top hall of the space city.

As the natives of the Frost Star offered drinks to the two, Liana also picked up the retort again, but when she was about to take a sip, she was slightly taken aback.

Brandy looked at her with a smile: "Thinking of Hall?"

"No." Liana said insincerely, and immediately denied it.

But her expression gave everything away.

The last time I came was last year. At that time, in order to "hide" her, Hall ran here from the base to inspect the production situation of the warship... but unexpectedly, he chased after her...

Then, the two drank wine all night here.

Since then, the two have lost contact for a long time, and then resumed and became more frequent.

Brandy, as a person who has experienced countless women, naturally saw the thoughts of this quasi-prophet who is currently in the center of the incident at Base 31 at a glance. He just smiled and was about to get up: "Anna, you have to trust Hall, this guy He was the smartest in the class - there was nothing he couldn't handle."

Liana smiled slightly: "If his cleverness were used in science, he might have become a prophet."

"That can't - you haven't become a prophet, how dare he?"

"Haha, Lao Bai, don't you want to die for being so talkative?"

"how do you know?"

Governor Brandy laughed and stood up, then glanced at the cat girl who had been standing quietly and obediently behind Liana, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "I have to deal with the remote audit of the investigation team here. ——You can stay here with peace of mind, anyway, you even brought the maid with you, which just saves me from arranging for you."

"Well—why do you still need to audit your side?"

"Not only Frost Star, Blue Leaf Star, Red Star and other servant galaxies will all be audited. But don't worry, even if they come here in person, they won't be able to find you—then I will squat at the North Pole of the planet below and freeze to death Help the dog! Let them know the dangers of the bitter cold land!"

Liana smiled.

As the brandy left, Liana quietly watched the other party leave the undrinked wine glass, and the scene of drinking with Hall appeared again in her mind.

After a few seconds of silence, she raised her glass and took a sip gently and slowly.

Then, she looked back at the cat girl who had been waiting.

"Gloria, sit down across the street."

"Er... Teacher, is this not good?"

"What's wrong?" Liana took another sip of her wine and said with some displeasure, "You are no longer on Planet Ella. According to the Empire's regulations, you are no longer a descendant of a sinner."

Gloria trembled slightly, then obediently sat across from her.

"Come and connect with the detector data on the pickup truck, and see how long it takes for the human communicator to arrive." Liana handed her a plane communicator as she spoke.

"Okay, teacher." Taking over the plane communicator, Goliath quickly followed the prompts to connect to the data stream of the pickup.

Soon, she saw various data and real-time images transmitted from Pickup's early enemy reconnaissance ship.

In the instant image, a small human spaceship is approaching the jump point at a super-high speed close to sublight speed.

And based on its speed, the estimated time is... three hours.

"Teacher, in three hours, the human communication spacecraft will arrive at the Frost Galaxy."

"Yeah." Liana hummed lightly, raised her head again and took a sip, and then said lightly: "You draft a text message and send it to the pickup, and let him send it to humans through the reconnaissance ship."

"What are you going to say? Teacher."

"Just say..." Liana squinted slightly, and after thinking for a moment, said softly: "I want to see Crozier and Grena as soon as possible, and I want to see their complete living environment."

"At the same time, we also need to conduct boarding inspections on their communication ships."

Gloria was slightly taken aback, and immediately asked, "What if humans don't agree?"

"If you don't agree, we'll just blow it up."
