From black technology to super engineering

Ye Ming hid his contempt well in the deepest part of his eyes. While letting Ita summarize this person's report in his mind, he quietly listened to Crozier's report.

"The Executor Legion is the guard legion of the Holy Empire. It has a total of fifty-four bases, located among the habitable galaxies of the fifty-four known super-galactic clusters."

"According to human space observation coordinates, these fifty-four superclusters are located in two galaxy structures, the Sloane Wall and the Laniakea Supercluster. These two structures are called the habitable zone of the universe... "

"Wait a minute." Ye Ming interrupted Crozier: "The Laniakea Super Galaxy Cluster and the Sloan Great Wall add up to more than a billion light years. Even if there are countless natural jump star gates... we must fully explore these Star Territory…”

Ye Ming frowned slightly. He knew how difficult it was to figure out these spatial structures that often occupy a few percent of the entire universe without star maps and faster-than-light travel.

This is also one of the "doubts" that humans have about their enemies - clearly the enemy is a civilization that is similar to or even worse than the current humans, so why can they dominate the universe? In other words... "unify" the universe in a "short time".

Of course, he agrees with the idea of ​​the habitable zone of the universe.

Even if we don't follow the currently popular Big Bang theory, the entire universe is not habitable in any interval.

"According to records, it took our ancestors thousands of years to complete the detection of the entire habitable zone structure."

"You mean that all rhetoric can be left to time, is that what you mean?" Ye Ming looked at the other party intently.

In the picture, Crozier also stared at Ye Ming. Suddenly he smiled, and a very complicated expression appeared on his face - there was emotion, and a touch of superiority.

"Academician Ye, a period of thousands of years may be unbelievable to human beings. Even a few hundred years can cause earth-shaking changes... But on the scale of the entire universe, a few hundred years is not considered. After all, according to human According to the standard, our life span is generally over 300 years old. So... the occurrence of many things can indeed be left to time."

Ye Ming's eyes narrowed, and he understood where Crozier's sense of superiority came from.

Compared to the Holy Empire, humans are as young as a toddler.

So Ye Ming nodded slowly: "I understand, the ability of creatures like ants to grow fungi and raise aphids in captivity can indeed be explained by time. And according to this evolutionary path, in a few hundred million years, they may not create a real civilization. .”

Listening to Ye Ming using ants as a metaphor, Crozier always felt that Ye Ming was swearing, but he had no evidence...

"You continue." Ye Ming waved his hand.

"The strength of these 54 bases is not the same. Some are very strong and some are very weak. The one currently fighting you is Base 31. Its chief commander is Hall and his deputy commander is Dika - also He is the owner of the fleet that was wiped out by you in the Dibi system. There are also six commanders, each of whom controls fleets ranging from two hundred to five hundred."

Listening to Crozier's "detailed" introduction, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Ye Ming's mouth.

Of course, humans have known this for a long time - a year ago, Gloria reported the entire situation of Base 31 to humans.

"We already know this."

Crozier was stunned for a moment! His mouth opened wide, and his eyes were full of disbelief - this was information that he and Lianna had not reported when they were "interrogated"!

How do humans know this?

"Not only do we know this, we also know that Liana in your three-person investigation team is a classmate of Hall's and is deeply liked by Hall... Her mentor is called Klin, one of the top ten most powerful figures in the Seer Academy. .”

Ye Ming said lightly, remaining calm again.

Crozier clenched his fists tightly. In an instant, he thought of countless reasons in his mind, but he still couldn't guess how humans knew this - it was as if someone had defected to humans long before him!

"You continue." Ye Ming continued to wave: "No need to guess how much we know, just say what you want."

"Okay..." After taking a deep breath, Crozier closed his eyes for a moment, and then opened them again: "Base 31 is a very powerful base, with a total of two thousand battleships and two orbital ships. "

"How many artificial jump devices are there?"

"Fifteen ships."

"Okay, you continue."

"There are five servant galaxies in total, namely the Frost Galaxy, the Red Maple Galaxy, the Tyrone Galaxy, the Blue Leaf Galaxy, and the Dortland Galaxy."

"These slave galaxies can add a total of about two hundred warships to the base every Earth year."

"Relying on his strong power, Hall is also a popular figure in the entire legion. Although he is ranked in the top ten, his authority can actually reach the top three, because in addition to the power of Base 31 itself, the chief executive of Base 38 Guan Chao is his friend, the one at Base 32 is his classmate, and the CEO of Base 4 is also on good terms with him... In addition, Liana's teacher is also his teacher, so he is in the Prophet's Academy. China also has support.”

"Not to mention, within the legion, he is a member of the legion liaison staff committee, and the legion commander is his master..."

Ye Ming listened quietly, and his brows gradually wrinkled.

It seems that humans have found a hot potato?

"And these... are actually not very important. The important thing is..." Crozier took a deep breath and said slowly: "He is a very ambitious person."

"Ambition?"

"Yes, I can see that he is very ambitious." Crozier lowered his eyes: "Therefore, he is definitely not a person who will give up easily."

Ye Ming nodded slowly.

Since you are ambitious, you will not give up easily.

"Then what?"

"Then... as long as the artificial jump generator is still there, he can summon many friends." After a pause, Crozier said softly: "Although this is against the legion's combat system, in my opinion... Zhandu Now that it has reached this level, what is the Legion’s combat system?”

Ye Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, and then nodded slowly.

This means that next, the enemy may have support.

But then he asked with some curiosity: "To what extent do you think it is?"

"The extent to which the empire will perish." Crozier looked directly at Ye Ming, with no expression on his face, only an almost cruel calmness: "Putting aside my knowledge in the human world, just from pure combat, to an execution Judging from the official’s vision, this is the situation.”

"You...are the executive officer?"

"Preparatory executive officer." Crozier nodded slightly and suddenly smiled: "Academician Ye, maybe you don't know that after this mission is completed, I will be the only executive officer who has obtained the status of scholar and executive officer at the same time. "

Ye Ming was startled for a moment, and a smile appeared on his lips: "I'm sorry, can you make it clearer?"

"It means that if everything goes well, in the future, I will have a better relationship than Hall... and a higher status - I can convince many people to accept me and accept human beings..."

"bona fide."

After finishing speaking, Crozier closed his mouth and waited quietly for Ye Ming's response.

Ye Ming fell into a long silence, then suddenly smiled and nodded slowly.

…

…

After ending the communication, Ye Ming quickly sent a message to Yang Wenzhi, asking him to come to his room later. When he was thinking about how to deal with the enemy and possible reinforcements, a communication from the earth interrupted his thoughts.

He had to answer this video call.

"Since you won, why didn't you call me back?"

In the video, Qi Yumo stared at him dissatisfiedly. Judging from the pajamas she was wearing, she should be ready to rest at this time.

"Uh..." Ye Ming slapped his forehead and smiled quickly: "I was so busy that I forgot, where is my daughter?"

"I've gone to bed long ago." Qi and Mo sat on the edge of the bed, trying to get angry, but they didn't know where to start - her man was on a business trip in an alien galaxy and accidentally commanded a huge battle. She didn't care. No matter how worried I am, I know I shouldn't lose my temper.

"Are you still on the Mercury?"

"Um."

"Then...is it safe?" Qi Yumo frowned, with worry on their faces.

Ye Ming was stunned, then laughed: "You don't think I'm on the front line, do you?"

"Then where are you? Are you still in the Karatu Galaxy?"

"Yes, the Mercury has returned to the Karatu Galaxy a long time ago, but it will probably go to the Sophie Galaxy in a few days, but I won't be on the Mercury at that time." Ye Ming smiled and shook his head: "Do you think you are stupid?"

Qi and Mo were startled, and finally laughed after taking a long breath: "I really thought the Mercury was in Sophie's galaxy... I'm worried about you for nothing."

"Haha, don't worry, do you think I am someone who can go wherever I want?"

"That's right, the earth won't turn around without you." Qi Yumo smiled and glanced at it a few times: "What time is it where you are now? Is there anyone around you?"

"Yes, He Mo, Ai Wen, and Eta are across the way, and Lao Yang will come over later to discuss the military situation."

"...Then...you go ahead and get back early."

After hanging up the phone, Qi and Mo got into bed, and then dialed Mo Gu's communication.

"What did he say?" In the video, Mo Gu was sitting in a small room filled with mist. It looked like she was taking a sauna: "Can I go to the Sophie Galaxy?"

Qi Yumo stared at their cousin and immediately slapped their foreheads: "Oops, I forgot to ask."

"...Can you be more reliable..." Mo Gu rolled his eyes, grabbed a towel and poured some water on himself: "The development of Sophie Star is imminent. Go early and get rich early."

There is never an airtight wall in this world. The news that the Kerong people hope to relocate their entire family to the planet Sophie 4 to solve the three-body problem has secretly spread from "someone unknown".

It is conceivable that once such news appears on the Internet, it will inevitably attract the attention of all netizens.

This can also capture the thoughts of real people.

Maybe the publicity in the previous six months had an effect, or maybe it’s because I have a natural affinity for beautiful races like the Kerong people, or maybe I feel that Sophie’s galaxy is too far away... and unsafe. In short, it’s just based on the feedback from ordinary people. Look, many people's reactions tend to be "indifferent" and "generous".

Of course, some netizens believe that this is a galaxy conquered by humans, and it would be a shame to give it to the Kerong people for nothing... It's just that this argument doesn't get much support in the context of the current "Civilization Alliance."

After all, everyone knows that from the beginning of the war to the present, no matter how outrageous the fighting on the front line was, not even a single human hair was injured... The heavy casualties were all caused by Kerong and Blue Star people.

Humans must recognize this kind of friendship between blood and fire.

In addition, the three-body problem of the Kerong people is indeed concrete, so as long as you are careful and make some calculations, you will know that once humans agree to the demands of the Kerong people, the construction of Planet Sophie will start immediately.

In a sense, this can be regarded as a huge release of human beings' "excess production capacity", and it is also a huge expansion of human influence - just imagine a planet completely led by human beings, even if there are not humans living on it , then the planet must not listen to humans?

"...Sister, even if we want to develop it, we have to finish the battle."

"Isn't it easy after the fight? Didn't you see today's news? By the way... you didn't ask your husband how long it will take to get over?"

"...No, I forgot."

"F*ck!" Mo Gu stood up in anger. Even though he was armed, everything was still there: "You...then is there any use in making a phone call?"

Lacquer and ink: "..."

"Forget it, I'll ask myself. Don't be so cautious later."

…

…

On the Mercury, Yang Wenzhirao had not rested for a day, but when Ye Ming called him, he immediately rushed to Ye Ming's room.

After hearing the reminder from Crozier, Yang Wenzhi immediately became cautious.

"It means that the enemy can still send the fleet over?"

"That's what he means, and look..." Ye Ming opened the star map and pointed in the direction of the enemy's base camp: "The enemy's man-made jump device still maintains its assembly posture, and there are also functional ships mobilizing around."

"this means?"

"It means that the enemy must either run through this device or come through this device!"

Yang Wenzhi breathed in gently, and then nodded slowly. He closed his eyes and kept rolling his eyes. The more he thought about it, the more he frowned.

"Mr. Ye, if we keep pursuing them and then encounter hundreds of fleets... I'm afraid the energy is not enough."

After a moment, Yang Wenzhi opened his eyes, a look of worry rising on his face.

Ye Ming also nodded slightly.

And, more importantly, he thought of another possibility.

——Since humans can rely on artificial jump generators to deploy battleships anytime and anywhere, then the enemy... obviously can also.

Then... even if humans clear out the entire Sophie galaxy and retain a force heading towards the enemy's base camp.

If the enemy uses man-made jump generators to deploy fleets on a large area to intercept them, how should humans deal with it?

Does it all rely on anti-matter battleships to achieve an overwhelming victory?
